LIGHTRIZE ROOF TOP TENT 1200

The DARCHE Lightrize is a premium hard shell rooftop tent designed for adventurers who want outstanding comfort, generous space, and effortless convenience. It suits everything from solo travellers to couples planning extended off road adventures.

Twin Fold Design Creates More Sleeping Space

The Lightrize features an innovative twin fold design that delivers a much larger sleeping area than a traditional single fold hard shell tent with the same roof footprint. Once you arrive at camp, the tent opens quickly into a spacious interior with plenty of room to sit comfortably, move around, and keep essential gear close by. Packing away is just as simple thanks to the integrated internal pulley system, allowing both sections to be closed from one side so a single person can easily pack the tent without needing to walk around the vehicle.

Panoramic Views With Excellent Ventilation

Large windows on every side provide impressive airflow and almost 360 degree views of your surroundings. The wraparound windows feature fully retractable canvas panels, allowing you to open the tent completely and enjoy uninterrupted scenery. Fine insect mesh covers every opening, keeping bugs outside while maintaining excellent ventilation, making the Lightrize comfortable in both warm summer conditions and cooler weather.

Memory Foam Mattress With Condensation Control

Comfort is a priority with the Lightrize. The 50mm composite memory foam mattress delivers excellent support for a restful night's sleep and sits on top of a 10mm anti condensation mat that helps prevent moisture from collecting beneath the mattress overnight. This combination keeps the sleeping surface dry and comfortable throughout the year, whether you're camping in humid coastal conditions or cold alpine environments.

Integrated Power and LED Lighting

Everything is ready for a comfortable campsite setup. Built in 12V, USB A, and USB C charging ports let you power devices such as phones, fans, or lighting without running cables from your vehicle. Inside, two dimmable LED light strips provide adjustable illumination for reading, relaxing, or moving around after dark. Please note that an external power source is required and can be supplied from your vehicle or a portable battery.

Quick Setup With Premium Gas Struts

High quality Stabilus gas struts, engineered in Germany and widely used in automotive and industrial applications, make opening and closing the tent smooth and controlled in a wide range of temperatures. The 2.3m aluminium telescopic ladder is suitable for vehicles with a roof or tray height of up to 2.2m, providing safe and convenient access to the tent.

Designed for All Season Protection

Built for demanding conditions, the Lightrize uses strong 6 Series aluminium alloy extrusions combined with a lightweight composite honeycomb baseboard. The main body is constructed from durable 280gsm ripstop polycotton canvas with a 3000mm waterhead rating, while a 420D polyester Oxford ripstop fly adds another layer of weather protection with the same waterproof rating. Automotive grade rubber weather seals, fully taped seams, and twin needle stitching work together to keep rain out during extended wet weather. Reinforced stress points, self repairing coil zips, and UPF 50+ rated fabric further enhance the tent's durability and performance in harsh Australian conditions.

Practical Storage Solutions

Thoughtfully placed internal storage pockets and an overhead cargo net help keep your belongings organised and off the mattress. When closed, the tent has enough room to store two sleeping bags and two pillows inside, freeing up valuable storage space in your vehicle. Its low profile also makes it a great option where roof height and clearance are important.

Important: Before purchasing, always confirm the load rating and compatibility of your vehicle and roof rack with the manufacturer. Professional installation through a local 4WD specialist or authorised DARCHE retailer is recommended.
