Skylight shade
« on: January 30, 2023, 12:39:32 pm »
DW saw an ad for duo form thermo shield rv skylight shade. A bit on the pricey side, but if they work as advertised, might just be worth it. Anyone have any experience with them? Pros, cons and general knowledge is appreciated.

thanks

I have them installed on the front and rear vent. Love it. Very little light leaks around the edges. It's thin enough my head still has clearance (I'm just under 6'2") as I walk under it.


I found them a bit difficult to wind up when I first installed them, but I'm much better at it now. There's a small pin sticking out at one end. When you push it, it releases a latch and the spring rewinds the blind onto the roll. Hold it the right way and it works well... But it takes practice. After 2 years they still stay up tight and close to the ceiling. I would do it again.


I had to search my email history, but I bought mine here for $10 each.
