Product Information

Full details

The Trakker Tempest RS 150 Social Cap is an essential accessory for dedicated carp anglers who own the Tempest RS 150 shelter and need to expand their living space. It is designed to create a large front porch area perfect for socialising or gear storage, while simultaneously improving the shelter's thermal insulation and reducing condensation. While it significantly enhances the functionality of your setup, it is important to note that it is exclusively compatible with the Tempest RS 150 model and adds additional weight and setup time to your kit.

FAQs

Can I use this with other Tempest models?

No, the Social Cap is specifically designed and engineered for the Tempest RS 150.

Does it come with pegs?

Yes, the unit is supplied with high-quality T-pegs for secure anchoring.

Will this help keep my shelter warmer in winter?

Yes, it creates a double-skin effect over the roof which significantly improves insulation.

Can I use an Insect Panel with this?

Yes, you can zip an Insect Panel from your Tempest into the front of the Social Cap.

How do I store the unit properly?

Always pack it away clean and completely dry in the provided Aquatexx carry bag.

What material is the Social Cap made of?

It is constructed from high-performance Aquatexx fabric with a multi-layer breathable system.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears saggy after setup

Re-adjust the tension strap and ensure the poles are fully locked into their pre-formed positions.

Condensation forming inside the porch area

Roll back the sides or ensure the side vents are open to promote better airflow.

Difficulty zipping on the Infill Panel

Ensure the main cap is correctly aligned and the tension strap is not pulling the frame out of square.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly increases usable interior space
  • Provides excellent protection from the elements
  • Reduces condensation and improves internal temperature stability
  • Compatible with existing Tempest panels for added privacy
  • High-quality, durable Aquatexx material

Cons

  • Increases overall packed weight
  • Requires additional time for setup
  • Only compatible with the specific Tempest RS 150 model
  • Takes up more space in the swim compared to using the shelter alone

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the Social Cap, attach the frame to the existing Tempest RS 150 anchor points, securing the 16mm poles for rigidity. Use the provided tension strap to ensure the fabric is pulled taut, which is critical for water run-off and preventing pooling. Always use the included T-pegs to secure the porch base in windy conditions. Regarding compatibility, this item is strictly for the Tempest RS 150. For care, ensure the cap is completely dry before storing it in the provided Aquatexx zipped carry bag to prevent mold growth. Wipe the aluminium poles clean if they have been in contact with mud or silt, and avoid storing it while damp for extended periods.
