I was dragged (wife) into replacing our manual awning with a Dometic Power awning. I left the bottom/arm support brackets in place. The power awning is so flimsy and poorly made. I hate the new awning because every time we have a little breeze, the thing attempts to fly off so over to the switch I have to go and roll it up. Just as soon as this thing gives up, a new manual awning will be put back on.
Which style did you go with?? One style has the criss-cross arms and another has the "V" type arms.
Some awnings have automatic sensors that retract the awning automatically but ours doesn't have that sensor.
