[/quote]Oh, wow! Thanks for pointing this feature out, WF!  A lesson is here to keep looking up!  Almost missed the birds for the fish!

Looks like a sensory deprivation tank. They could market to fishing enthusiasts as "The Bobber" --- imagine it with a red & white colour scheme.

[/p][p]I look at this design with both lust and distain. I appreciate the engineering aspects. I appreciate the style from an abstract point of view. It is risky. Couple things bug me though.[/p][p]
[/p][p]They have gone through all that work making the shell seamless then proceeded to bust a zillion holes in it for the solar panels, which by any definition, should only be mounted on a single angle of incidence per row. There will also be a bunch of dark cells at any given time.[/p][p]
[/p][p]Imagine trying to find a roof leak on this? Unless they are glued on and that would stink from a different prospective. No, but the wires must route.[/p][p]
[/p][p]Small scale wind is usually a bad idea unless trees are constantly flagging. Around 7-8mph or so.

(my bad!)

Seriously, a fully submersible application could be helpful in looking for Nessie...no?   "2000 Livin Lites Under the Sea" sort of thing, 'no wood, no rust or rot!' 
(Starting to see why PinStriper doesn't want to pay for this stuff!  :P

[p]Another thing these folks have figured out, unlike CampLite, is most of the users are over two feet tall. Smashing my head on the opened windows once hurts a bit. But after the seventh time in the same exact spot I start to see stars.... >:D (rofl)[/p][p]
[/p][p]C'mon ...you know you have done it too.[/p]
