Our Opinion:-
The Movelite T1 has seen various improvements over recent years
The Movelite T1
to give a Rainsafe canopy over the front door. It has been a criticism
we had of the Moveairlite and T1 of previous years that there was not a
rainsafe entrance like other models in the Outdoor Revolution Movelite
Range. This has now been rectified and be adding one simple fibreglass
pole once erected you get a small canopy over the front door. This
provides some shelter from the rain entering the awnings groundsheet
every-time you enter or exit the awning. Outdoor Revolution have also
added a large mesh panel to the front door for improved ventilation. The
other big change over the 2018 model is the groundsheet. This is now a
Sewn-in groundsheet, previously it was a zip in groundsheet.
The Movelite T1 is a dome style awning featuring a single inflation point Air frame for ease of pitching. Outdoor Revolution’s Movelite Oxygen
driveaway-awnings have many advantages over their competitors, the
biggest being the Pressure relief valve built into the Air Tubes. The
Bladder is the inner tube of the Air Frame system a bit like the inner
tube on a bike tyre. Outdoor Revolution has incorporated a unique
Pressure Release Valve into the Bladder. If this valve detects that the
tube is over inflated it automatically releases some Air. This can be
while you are pumping the Awning up or whilst the Awning is pitched. As
Air Pressure increases with Temperature the Pressure inside the Air
Tubes can increase during the day with the awning pitched, this can
cause them to rupture but with Outdoor Revolutions NEW Pressure Release
Valve the Tubes should never over-inflate. For this reason they are
confidant to give a Lifetime Warranty on the Air Tube (against manufacturing faults and subject to registering the warranty with Outdoor Revolution).
For 2019 Outdoor Revolution as using a 480HDE
double rip stop fabric with the Movelite range of awnings. This figure
relates to the density and design of the fabrics weave. It seem to be
the latest marketing ploy amongst manufacturers to use higher value
numbers in the descriptions, making it harder for the consumer to
distinguish between the makes and models. It is nice to see therefore
that Outdoor Revolution have reverted back to publishing the Hydrostatic
head rating for the fabrics. A figure most customers can relate to. So
for this range of Awnings the H.H rating is 6000mm.
The Movelite T1
gives the flexibility of adding optional Bedroom Annexes to either side
of the awing. giving the ability to sleep up to 2 people, yet retaining
the main awning as living space.
NOTE Tall height Designed for Coach Built Motorhomes or Larger Van Based conversions, with a fixing height of Between 240cm-290cm
What the manufacturer says:-
The
new season brings a REDESIGNED and UPGRADED variation of our
lightweight double rip stop Movelite T1 single inflation point drive
away air awning, raising the bar when it comes perfectly fusing style,
functionality and versatility in a campervan/motorhome awning, with its
enhanced styling architecture and shallow Gothic arched roof. This model
provides a generous 3m x 3m square interior, plus can accommodate an
optional coordinating two person sleeping annexe on either side, making
it ideal for smaller touring families craving extra living, storage, or
sleeping space alongside their vehicle. The implementation of a frontal
Phoenix Mesh fly screen panel, as well as additional ventilation in the
rear cowl and roof optimises airflow, helping to combat condensation and
humidity in warm climates. An extra mesh fly screen can also be
purchased for both side doors.
The
lightweight 480HDE double rip stop fabric weave provides the optimum
strength to weight ratio of any material, providing the longevity and
performance of much heavier, denier fabrics, without their
impracticalities and weight constraints. This material incorporates a
6,000mm² hydrostatic head and has fully taped seams throughout, meaning
the fabric is exceptionally waterproof and rain will simply bead onto
the surface, before rolling off. A lighter coloured roof material
reflects heat to retain a comfortable temperature inside the awning,
whilst the engineered double rip stop weave provides a contemporary look
and feel, whilst preventing accidental damage from worsening. The
workmanship and canvas possess a 12 month warranty against any
manufacturing faults.
The Oxygen Air-Frame is
the quickest, simplest and most reliable inflation system on the
market, with no adjoining pipes/taps spoiling the immaculate lines of
our stunning designs. The air frame comprises our Dura-Tech single inflation point air frame technology, utilising welded high pressure tubes, a telescopic roof rigidity pole, the famed Dynamic Speed Valve and patented Intelligent Frame Relief Valve. Inflation is rapid using the pump provided
and deflation is just the push of a button; our exclusive pressure
relief valve prevents damage to the tube by expelling any excess air,
typically caused by over inflation or changes in the ambient
temperature. All valves are discretely concealed by a Velcro cover. The
Dura-Tech frame has been quality controlled to ensure optimal
performance and holds our exclusive Lifetime Guarantee* for peace of
mind in years to come.
Expansive
tinted anti-glare windows grant a panoramic vista of the surrounding
environment and protect against any harmful UV rays, whilst increasing
privacy and illuminating the awning interior during daytime hours; these
are accompanied by zip-in curtains, which can be zipped fully out and
rolled back, or zipped completely out for additional privacy at night.
The extra-deep rear cowl found on this model utilises a tapered profile
side for a weather tight fit, plus facilitates both left and right hand
entry to ensure accessibility to vehicles from the UK and Europe;
these feature waterproof zips and ventilation (with zip down draft
covers) on each side. A sewn-in groundsheet increases convenience when
pitching, whilst reducing the number of bugs that reach the living area
and preventing water ingression to the interior. The addition of twin
piping (6mm x 4mm) permits compatibility with both caravans and motorhomes within the corresponding height range.
We
have now introduced a frontal ‘Phoenix Mesh’ ventilation fly screen
panel to optimise the through flow of air in the awning and keep insects
at bay; this is an assisted healing smart material with the
structurally incorporated ability to repair snag damage, typically
caused by consistent usage. Simply manipulated, the mesh will then
return to its original form. A NEW integrated front eyebrow canopy has
also been incorporated, creating a convenient mini porch area, where you
can relax outdoors, whilst sheltered from the elements. All four door
panels can be completely in, or zipped fully back, enabling this product
to function as a freestanding gazebo in summer.
This
product comes complete with reflective guylines, adjustable
tensioning/fixing straps, a handy repair kit, rear cowl height
tensioning adjusters, a dual-action hand pump, steel ground pegs, an
electrical hook up point, twin air flow roof ventilation, and attachment
points for our ‘Lumi-Link’ and ‘Up/Downlighter’ lighting systems. There
are an array of complementary optional extras available to purchase
with this model, including an inflatable two man annexe, additional mesh
door panels, a luxurious carpet (made to measure), two berth inner tent
and telescopic roof tensioning poles.
