Carefree Eclipse 12V Electric Patio Awning | 13'-20' | QJ Series

Hold the button and walk away. The Carefree Eclipse extends to a partial or full 8' in seconds: as the billow-proof worm-gear motor unrolls the canopy, the rafter arms glide up the vertical track on the coach wall and lock into a truss-like overhead support — nothing to latch, nothing to lock, and the highest head clearance of any vertical-arm awning. Retraction is self-leveling from any pitch, and the worm-gear drive locks the roller for travel so billowing is not a concern. Six instant pitch settings let you chase the shade.

⚠️ Measure and Choose

Order by awning length (the QJ part number's first two digits are feet — 13' through 20' listed here); the canopy extends 8'. Colors are PartsVia's names for Carefree's vinyl fade and dune-stripe patterns (D8D = black/gray dune stripes, D00 = silver shale fade or black/gray dune per listing, B00 = camel shale fade, 06E = black shale fade / white); the variant swatch is the reference. PartsVia files this series under "Springless"; the D8D listings carry Carefree's Eclipse description. Confirm your RV's wall length and 12V feed before ordering.
