I figure there are two approaches to this problem: o sealing the case & filling it with dry air/gas. o venting. I went with the venting approach. As long as humidity is non-condensing, it shouldn't really matter that much. Assuming the unit lasts through the summer, I can disassemble it in the fall and see how the electronics inside has survived. I'll try and take photos this week and install the darn thing this weekend. -- andyw at pobox.com Andy Warner Voice: (612) 801-8549 Fax: (208) 575-5634
