LIGHTRIZE ROOF TOP TENT
The DARCHE Lightrize is a hard shell roof top tent built for explorers who refuse to compromise on comfort, space, or convenience. Available in 1200mm and 1400mm widths, it suits a wide range of vehicles and travel styles, from solo adventurers to couples heading into remote terrain for extended trips.
Twin-Fold Design for a Larger Sleeping Space
The Lightrize uses an innovative twin-fold design that opens into a significantly larger internal sleeping area than a single-fold hard shell tent of the same footprint. When you pull into camp, the tent deploys quickly and locks into a spacious, comfortable living space with room to sit up, move around, and store gear inside. When it's time to pack up, an integrated internal pulley system allows both halves of the tent to be closed from the same end, meaning one person can pack the whole thing down without walking around the vehicle.
Panoramic Views and All-Round Ventilation
Large windows on all four sides of the Lightrize deliver exceptional cross-ventilation and near-360 degree visibility. The wraparound windows feature fully retractable canvas layers, so you can open them up completely for unobstructed views of your surroundings. Fine insect mesh across all openings keeps bugs out while keeping airflow moving, making the Lightrize a genuinely comfortable option for warm-weather camping as well as cooler conditions.
Premium Memory Foam Mattress With Anti-Condensation Mat
Sleep quality is taken seriously in the Lightrize. A 50mm composite memory foam mattress provides excellent support and comfort, sitting on top of a 10mm anti-condensation mat that prevents moisture from building up between the mattress and the baseboard overnight. The result is a sleeping surface that stays dry and comfortable across all seasons, whether you're camping in the humidity of tropical Queensland or the cold of an alpine winter.
Built-In Power Ports and LED Lighting
The Lightrize comes ready to power your devices at camp. Built-in 12V, USB-A, and USB-C ports are integrated directly into the tent, so you can charge phones, run a lamp, or power a fan without running cables from your vehicle. Two integrated dimmable LED light strips provide adjustable lighting inside the tent, creating the right level of brightness for reading, getting ready for bed, or navigating in the dark. A power source is not included and will need to be connected from your vehicle or a portable battery system.
Effortless Setup With German-Engineered Gas Struts
Stabilus gas struts, engineered in Germany and used across high-quality automotive and industrial applications, make opening and closing the Lightrize smooth and controlled at any temperature. There's no fighting the tent open after a long day of driving. The 2.3m aluminium telescopic ladder suits most vehicle heights up to a maximum vehicle or bed base height of 2.2m, and deploys easily for quick access in and out of the tent.
All-Season Weather Protection
The Lightrize shell is built from 6-Series aluminium alloy extrusions with a lightweight composite honeycomb baseboard. The canvas body uses 280gsm ripstop polycotton canvas with a 3000mm waterhead rating, and a 420D polyester Oxford ripstop fly adds a second layer of weather protection with a matching 3000mm waterhead rating. High-profile automotive-grade rubber weather seals run along all opening edges, while taped seams and twin-needle stitching throughout the body prevent water ingress even in sustained heavy rain. Self-repairing coil zips and reinforced stitching on all stress points add to the long-term durability of the tent. UPF 50+ protection is built into the fabric for harsh-sun conditions.
Smart Internal Storage
Internal side pockets and a roof storage net keep your essentials organised and off the mattress. When the tent is closed for travel, it can store two sleeping bags and two pillows inside the shell, saving space in your vehicle for other gear. The compact packed profile makes the Lightrize a practical choice for vehicles where roofline clearance matters.
Available in Two Widths
The Lightrize is available in a 1200mm width for solo campers and those with narrower roof setups, and a 1400mm width for couples or anyone who wants extra sleeping space. Both sizes use the same construction, features, and mattress quality. The included mounting channels suit most commercially available flat roof rack or roof rail systems. A roof rail accessory kit is also available separately for vehicles without a standard flat rack.
Important: Always check the weight rating and suitability of your roof rack and vehicle with the relevant manufacturer before purchase. Professional installation through a local 4WD centre or DARCHE retailer is recommended. After placing your order, please contact us to confirm your nearest depot for delivery.
