RE: I've been using a piece of 3/4" ID PVC for several years, works great.
There is nothing wrong with my struts but I have this setup to allow putting
a fully loaded solar shower on top of the open hatch.
Word of Caution:  When installing prop the hatch open with a broom handle or
such BEFORE detaching one end of the strut to put on the PVC.  Don't ask why
I emphasise this......
