Magna Shade Works

[Gizmo]

I watched a Youtuber do a test on the Magna Shade and decided to duplicate it; Here is what I found. With no Magna shade with the sun shining in my front window, the outside temperature was 86 and my dash and front blackout had a temperature of 97. I put the Magna shade up just on the front window and waited a couple of hours and the outside temps went up to 97 but the temperature on my blackout shade and dash dropped to 91 degrees. Then I pulled the shade off and it took about 45 minutes for the blackout shade temperature to get to over 115 degrees.

I conclude the Magna shade really does help keep your RV cooler.

And they're handy for spying on the neighbors from inside your rig!

Nope, we haven't in the two years we have been towing it. We even use a Patriot II breaking system and have towed two days in a row without starting the Rubicon.

Now back to Magna-shade discussion…

Magna shade does work well.

We see similar results, the reduction in radiant heat is not just a small amount, it is VERY noticeable during full sun days. Of course, the A/C runs much less too.

We would absolutely get the Magna shade again!

Wow! For $675 it should have an air conditioner included!!

I also use the Magna Shade tire covers. Very easy to install and remove.
