OC, I'd be a buyer if you decide to go public with that bracket my friend.

Got the prototype made and will ship it to GasPeddler to see if it works. We'll just have to wait on him for results. It is narrow enough to fit between the awning material and the motor end cap. Good luck GasPeddler.

I'll report back with the details of the install.
Thanks again Neil!

I think I'll install some locking pins in my awning arms to hold things in place when I travel. Anyone have any suggestions on where to place lock pins on power dometic awning? Pics?

Yes, Send the old Coot a PM he has designed a awning tie down for travel, the plastic gears in the motor can let go at any time. With his invention it will not be able to let go. It's not what I call high tech. but I swear that it can't come loose. I'm sure he would sell you the set up.....

Just came in....will try to install this weekend. Thanks again OC.

If it is just rain - and a lot of rain - if you keep one end a few notches lower than the other, I find that rain never pools on the awning.

But if the wind is kicking up, I agree, it's only a few minutes to roll it back up.
