Bat 270 Awning

The Eezi-Awn Bat 270 Awning delivers 270 degrees of freestanding coverage around your vehicle — over 80 ft² — deployed solo in under a minute. Four triangular panels wrap from the side to the rear of the vehicle, with three of the four rafter arms featuring swing-out, height-adjustable legs for stability in varied terrain and wind conditions. Built from 260 gram waterproof ripstop canvas with a 700 gram UV-resistant PVC cover, and made at Eezi-Awn's Johannesburg facility. Available in Grey or Beige for left (driver) or right (passenger) side mounting.

KEY FEATURES

• 270° Wrap-Around Coverage: Four triangular panels deploy from the side and around the rear of the vehicle — covering the cooking area, camp chairs, and gear access zone simultaneously from a single mount point.
• Three-Leg Stability System: Three of the four rafter arms feature swing-out, height-adjustable legs, giving the Bat 270 more ground contact than most 270° awnings and meaningfully better resistance to wind without staking.
• Enhanced Hinge Mechanism: Features an updated extruded black powder-coated hinge — more durable than the previous design and capable of withstanding stronger winds with legs retracted.
• Solo One-Minute Deployment: The full 80 ft² structure deploys and stows by one person in under 60 seconds — no secondary support needed during setup.
• 260 Gram Waterproof Ripstop Canvas: The same canopy spec used across the Bat, Manta, Dragonfly, and Swift — waterproof, UV-resistant, and built for extended expedition use.
• 700 Gram UV-Resistant PVC Cover: Heavyweight tonneau-grade bag protects the awning during travel and extends canopy life on vehicles with high trail mileage.
• Wall Set Compatible: The Bat 270 Wall Set (sold separately) encloses the full 270° footprint into a standing-height private shelter with one door and two windows.

IDEAL FOR

• Base camp setups for two to four people where coverage around the rear cooking and dining area is the primary need.
• Extended overlanding trips where 80 ft² of weather-protected space is used for cooking, gear management, and relaxation simultaneously.
• Builds where a Manta 270 is too large or too heavy — the Bat 270 delivers the same 270° geometry at a slightly smaller footprint and lower weight.
• Overlanders who prioritize wall set compatibility — the Bat 270 Wall Set turns this into the most capable enclosed shelter system in the standard Eezi-Awn bag awning line.
