What Is A Darkroom Tent & What Are Their Advantages?
A darkroom tent (also known as a blackout tent or block out tent) is a tent constructed with special fabric that can block up to 99% of external light. The specific materials and construction are designed to absorb or diffuse light, resulting in a fully dark internal environment.
This imperviousness to incoming light creates a dark and serene environment for restful sleep and relaxation, which makes darkroom tents perfect for camping during bright summer days or in locations with early sunrises.
Benefits of a Darkroom Tent:
- Ultimate in light control: Blocks sunlight and external light.
- Privacy: Enjoy privacy and keep out unwanted eyes from you and your belongings.
- Versatility: Enjoy light when you want it with built-in windows and doors.
- Sun protection: Stay away from UV rays and enjoy shade from the hot summer sun.
Note that different brands use a variety of terminology and trademarked terms to define darkroom tents, for example 'Darkroom Technology' by Coleman, 'Eclipse' technology by Spinifex and 'BlockOut' coating by OZtrail.
