G'day guys, it's Ben from Snowys here and today we're having a quick look at the Zempire
Pocket Rocket Shower and Toilet Tent. Now, the Pocket Rocket is a relatively heavy
tent when it comes to your shower tents, it weighs 5.3 kilos and the reason why
is because it's got nice heavy-duty fibreglass poles in it, so it's really
quite strong. Now, when it's packed down like this, it's around
58 centimetres long, looking at about 19 by 18 in the height and the
width. All right, so let's get it set up and then we'll have a look at some of
the features inside, so obviously your first steps you want to get it out of
the bag. Now, inside the bag, when we open this up, everything's nice and contained
like that. You've got nothing extra in the bag that's outside of its section here.
You got your instruction manual, let's get it rolled out. Alright. So you got your poles, you
poll bag there. Got a peg bag as well, it is a quite nice heavy-duty tarpaulin
type bags, which is probably worth noticing.
A few toiletries holder there.
And, another one there, there's two toiletry holders. So, what you want to do is you
want to unfold the the tent itself. First step you want to do, is you wanna put
your poles together, so we'll get them out of the bag here. And you want to put your sections
together, so make sure they are all connected properly. Alright, so there's
four pole lengths in total, so you make sure you assembled all four pole
lengths. So what you want to then do is is each one will have, each of the poles
will have a bit of the end that's not got the steal, so with this, the bits sort of
going to go into the top part of the tent, the hub at the top, so we want to
make sure we've got that on that end on each of the four poles.
So, now that you've got the steel hub, so this is what we're gonna keep our four
poles into. I'll put it into the middle there, so it's a bit easier to get to our four
sides. So your poles, you simply slide in like so, sort of doing this four times over
obviously. Now the strings on the end can make this a little bit tricky so
make sure you just slide it in nicely like that and
pole four. Alright. So from here, what we want to do, is we want to lift this up
and now our four poles, there's four clips into the, one in each corner of
this tent, so we're simply putting in the clips, the tension clips and I'll lift the
middle of this tent up for us. Peak on the other three corners. Alright. Corner three and
lucky last corner four. So, now that we've got these four clips in place, the
general structure of the, the outside of the tent is here, so now we're gonna make
sure this comes out so there's some C clips, there's five on each of the four
sides, now they all clip in quite easily onto the, your fibreglass pole. You repeat
that on all four sides and then you're going to get the
structure of the tent up nice and proper. So you've got your roof section here which you just
pop over the top so it comes in over the other side. Then it clips into place on
this little blue ring here. Alright. So from here and I'll quickly spin it
around so you can see the front. Now from here normally you then peg it out, now
you gotta make sure the door is closed when you're pegging it out, otherwise if
you peg it out too wide, you won't be able to get your door closed. So the guy ropes in here, now
they recommend the guy ropes are always out. Guy ropes always give you extra protection
against the wind and you never know when a good gust is going to come, so when you
got this one set up in camp, always have your guy ropes out at around about a 45
degree angle is what's recommended. So from here, you peg it out and then
you're done, you're good to go and you're ready. And that's pretty much it, so
that's, that's the whole setup sorted, so to pack down, it really is literally just
a reverse of the setup that you did. So what you want to then do is undo all your
C clips, pop out the, the poles and the pins here, take them out of the hub at
the top, take the roof off, fold up your poles, fold up the tent itself, roll it
back in the bag and away you go. So, this is everything for the Zempire
Pocket Rocket setup and obviously pack up as well. If you want to find anything
