What are you using for a cover over the tracker?

I just bought a cheap dummy camera dome. Don't know how it will stand up to long exposure outside though.

I used 1 1/2" PVC pipe with cap on bottom

and the top dome is from the plastic container

you get when you put 50 cents in the vending machine

to get a toy at wal-mart in the entry way. It fit

just right but I don't know how long it will last.

I guess time will tell.

This system is still alive and well today with an upgrade to a 800w inverter. Soon will

need to replace battery. I think I will put two in this time.
