  • Thank you for watching!
    This is my walkaround of the FreeSpirit Evolution Rooftop Tent. This is an unbiased video showing what I love and what I do not about it. I have spent many nights in this tent. I am not a full time product tester, I am an Overlander who wants you to know the truth about this Tent.
    What FreeSpirit says about this tent...
    The Evolution Series Rooftop Tent has a new and enhanced look with a textured black top design. Enhanced zippers and buckles along with a new ladder mount make the 2021 model of the Evolution, the rooftop tent that will elevate your adventures!
    Available in 49" with room for 1-2 people and 55" with room for 2-3 people, the gas strut assist sets it up in seconds. Both sizes come with the premium FreeSpirit Recreation tri-layer fabric-making multi-season camping comfortable. The integrated LED light strip inside gives you light when you need it.

    Thank you for your review. I bought the same tent a few weeks ago. They have now replaced the rubber hold downs on the side with additional metal hold down. They have also changed up the ladder mount. I did a review as well on my channel.

    Seems like the EVO2 second version of this tent addressed most of the short comings. Stand off ladder, better mattress, latches, more pockets etc. seem like big improvements.

    What type of solar setup do you have. I have the same tent and was looking into that!

    • @brofessoroverlanding8456

      I have 3 Lensun Solar 100w flexible panels attached to the top of the tent with Gorilla Double Sided Tape. 2 of them are wired together in sequence and go to charge my Jackery 1000. The one in the front is wired to help charge my secondary battery on the FJ. The 2 100w panels will keep the Jackery at 100% while it is running the fridge and other things during the day. Very helpful when traveling off-grid.

    Hey - Quick question bcs I hate wind and it looks like the Freespirit might be a bit loosey goosey, flapping in the wind. Can you address that? Thanks so much for your review.

    Two questions: How about winter camping and cold air from under the tent, between the slats? Is that an issue? Also, how did you run your solar? Just stays inside the tent or does it make it all the way into the Jeep?

    • @brofessoroverlanding8456
      @brofessoroverlanding8456  2 года назад

      It stayed extremely warm inside. The solar was run 2 different ways. 2 panels to the Jackery and 1 to the secondary battery on the FJ with extension cables.

      I will check it out. I have actually traded mine off for another model of RTT. There were several things I loved about the tent and many things I didn’t. Thank you for sharing.
