Lateral thought: maybe I could drape one of these outside the window(s) in question as a sunshade?

Anyone know of other weather-proof lightweight fabric-based stuff like this?

the uk distributer of power film products in the UK. assuming half the price for getting someone in the US to buy them and post them might be just about worthwhile but its going to be an expensive sunshade. interesting technology all the same.

Ouch!, the rollup solar is $30 US a watt (300 Pounds/20 watts)

It says you can walk on it. Sounds like military surplus.
