While shopping for a new RV I was at a dealer and a rv had its electric awning out and it had a wind sensor. This was in the summer and a strong wind came up just ahead of a thunderstorm.
I mentioned that the awning should come in as the wind was really blowing. The sensor was spinning faster and faster.
Saleman stated that its wind controlled about that time the awning was lifted up and the damage was done. He later admitted that the sensors sometimes get out of adjustment.
My last rv had a electric awning but it sure wasn't wind sensor controlled.
