Product Information

Full details

The Trakker Tempest RS Brolly Social Cap is an essential upgrade for dedicated carp anglers who use the Tempest RS Brolly and require additional outdoor living space. It excels by providing a functional 1.2m porch area, significantly improving shelter insulation and ventilation through its dual-side opening design. While it adds substantial versatility, users should note that it increases the total setup weight and footprint, requiring more time to install compared to a standalone brolly.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this compatible with older Trakker brolly models?

No, the Social Cap is specifically designed for the Tempest RS Brolly range.

Does it come with pegs?

Yes, the product includes T-pegs and a zipped carry bag.

How much weight does it add to my load?

The total weight of the Social Cap is 5.25kg.

Can I leave the cap on when packing away the brolly?

It is recommended to detach the cap before packing to ensure the fabric is dried and stored correctly in its own bag.

Does the material block all light?

It uses a blackout pigment that significantly reduces light and heat ingress, keeping the shelter darker and cooler.

What are the dimensions of the porch area?

The cap creates a 1.2m deep porch area, with total assembly dimensions of 150cm (H) x 255cm (W) x 120cm (D).

Troubleshooting

Difficulty achieving a taut fit

Ensure the main shelter is correctly pegged and tensioned before mounting the cap; verify the tension strap is fully tightened.

Condensation still appearing

Ensure both side openings are unzipped to allow for proper cross-ventilation.

Poles are difficult to connect

Check that the pole joints are free of grit or mud, and ensure the fabric is not caught in the connection points.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Social Cap is specifically engineered for the Trakker Tempest RS Brolly series. To set up, ensure the main brolly is properly tensioned and pegged before attaching the cap frame. The unit utilizes the included 16mm aluminum poles to maintain its shape, requiring careful tensioning via the supplied strap.

Care Instructions:

Always allow the cap to dry completely before packing it into the included zipped Aquatexx carry bag to prevent mold.
Clean the fabric with a soft brush and water; avoid harsh chemical detergents that may compromise the water-repellent coating.
Inspect the poles regularly for debris and ensure the powder coating remains intact to prevent corrosion.
