General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Tom, no good for stealth, but I have got one of these:



they come in a whole range of sizes:



I can as a last resort use my car as micro stealth camper.

Its an estate, not good for headroom, but it will take my full length campbed in the rear, and I top it with an air mattress and a Finish down camping quilt: better than a sleeping bag and good for range from warm summer night to around minus 8 deg C.

I have also made a set of heavily insulated blackout covers for all the glass.

So far, I have relied on having rear windows open a crack to provide a crossflow ventilation to stop condensation. I am concerned that this could attract attention of villains, so currently working on a plan to have louvered vent strips occupying the gap, which can have the window securely abbutting both glass and window channel.

Have not yet used it 'in anger', just to very it as feasible and practical. I thought it would come in for dark sky visits to locations were tent or tarp might prove difficult.

However the last two opportunities when I may have tried this, I called off as it was p'ing down, and no obs would have been possible.
