Each of the eight ribs carries 14 small lights, 112 LEDs in all, solar powered with a switch on the rib and no cord to run across the deck. The side-mounted post leaves the area under the 10-foot navy canopy free for chairs or a lounger. Fade-resistant polyester holds color, powder-coated metal ribs resist rust, and top air vents let heat escape. Turning the hand crank opens, closes and tilts the canopy to different positions, and a loop strap keeps it compact between uses. Overall size is 10 by 8 feet, folding down to 3.3 by 3.3 by 8 feet; net weight 29.5 pounds.
