Looks like I'm late to the party, but the Solar undercover is brilliant. Had one a couple of months now and love it. Feels real quality, front goes on super easily (had to put it on once when it p*ssed it down sideways) and it's a nice height.

Are they quick to put up mate ? I had a fox supa brolly and was a right faff to get it up and sorted, I'm torn between tempest brolly and the solar.

Do you mean the ultra brolly? I thought both versions of the supabrolly were easy to setup, thats why I wanted another that didn't leak.

Put it up like a brolly, screw in 2 storm poles and screw central pole off. There's a clip in pole that goes between the storm poles, but not really felt the need to use it. It's another 10 seconds if you put that in.
I got it for overnighters and to make moving a more viable prospect, cos I can't be bothered taking a bivvy down. It's also lighter than the specs say. It's just big enough for a bedchair and my gear.

Was an avid 'traditional' brolly user myself for years (Nash Profiles and then JRC Stealths I think) but switching to a Tempest brolly was a gamechanger for me. Love them

My Solar Undercover Brolly System is being delivered tomorrow
bit pissed off they dont do a groundsheet for it though ?
I always use a groundsheet 100% of the time as I like to be barefoot most of the time just slipping on my Navitas Weaves and with river fishing I prefer to stay up all night under a 45" brolly next to the rods casting every 45 mins or so then reeling in and sleeping in the day
I need to get rid of the rest of my bivvies need to have a good sort out
I am just going to keep the Tempest Bivvy for lakes if ever I go back to them or River swims that I know are flat and big enough for it

Don't think you'll be disappointed with the Wychwood mate. Seconds to put up really once you get used to it and loads of room. You can put it away with the front zipped in if you really need to as well

I have the sp brolly and it's the same set up. If you put it up properly. 4 storm poles and one rain gutter pole. I would say 6/7 minutes if you don't leave the poles in place. The v2 would wipe the floor with it on set up times

Out of interest, what's made you go for the Solar brolly over the Wychwood tactical you have?
