Fully Enclosed rooms for 180 awnings

I'm doing some research on what types of awning rooms are out there, and was wondering if there are any fully enclosed 180 batwing awnings?

This would be like the standard ARB awning/room but for a batwing.

I would think that deploying the batwing would make setup/takedown faster along with more coverage. And with the current sale right now, the OVS 180 is not far off from the standard ARB offering.



Are only wind break walls available for batwing style awnings? Or has anyone tried adding an enclosed room? If no one has attempted it, I may try to hang the ARB room from a 180 batwing if the dimensions line up. The sides on the new style ARB awning zip out of the way so it allows a passthrough.

My goals are speed to put up and tear down along with usable living space, so in my mind this checks some of those boxes (at least on paper).

Not quite a 180 batwing but FSR makes a 270 awning which has a fully enclosed annex room available. It even comes with a floor. Sets up super fast. We have it on our truck.

Looks amazing! I didn't find that on my searches and ended up with the ironman4x4 awning and room combo. I also added the disconnects and poles to make it freestanding if needed. I'll see how it does, may go back to my hunt for a batwing like yours.

I have an ARB awning with a tent/screen room that connects to it. I have a 180 batwing with shade walls but have yet to see a batwing/tent enclosure with floors.

Anyone have a 180 or 270 degree awning mounted? Would like the pros and cons you have found.

I have the ARB awning with the box room and we love it but I am for sure interested in a 180 or 270 full room.

As intriguing and neat as those look, when I consider adding one it seems like it would be such a PITA to put up and take down. I had one for an RV and hated putting it up. It just makes camping too complicated. But, I guess if you sleep in it…
