A very well documented example of solar cooking,especially from the northern latitudes-what more could you want, a nice meal from solar power with snow on the ground.Two things I want-a wood oven for pizza and bread and a oven like yours,please update,about insulation problem and solutions!

does anyone know how to keep the heat in a solaroven mine tops out @170 F or 80 C?

Please tell me how/where to get these plans. This is the best solar oven I've seen. Great job!

Very nice video. Thank you for sharing your experience and the details. Love that you give data in both American standard and metric systems. That was a big help.

To deal with the steam, I made my solar oven glass in two pieces for each layer and just split them about an eighth for each layer. The steam escapes nicely

To deal with glass fog on my solar oven I'm gonna try using "algae magnets." Basicly two magnets one on each side of the glass. normally used to scrape off algae from the inside of aquariums without having to put your hand in the water. I believe it would also work here. The condensation could be wiped away without having to remove the glass.

Very Nice...thank you! In Texas we just clean a patch on the ground during the 104 degree heat and cook right there....lol...just kidding...I really like your video..thanks for sharing it.

to stop the fogging, seal your glass on a low humidity day, with a silica gel pack inside.

Actually, I just replaced the Mylar (or most of it). It was damaged due to moisture on the reflectors. I put it away without drying it and where the moisture had gathered, the Mylar was marked. I won't do that again. I think that if you clean it carefully and store it away closed up, 3 years would be a good estimate of Mylar longevity. Ken.

Your first solar box oven? Impressive!I was wondering if you have any estimate on the lifespan of your Mylar reflectors? Do you expect to replace them anytime soon?350 degrees F. is awsome. I've yet to break 275. |
