Have you tested the device under cloudy conditions?

Oh, it exists. Before I retired, that's the time I would walk to my local bus stop for my commute to work. ZZZZzzzzz.

Yeah, Dave - those things just aren't reliable - too complex and too many moving parts. :-) Cool shot.

Exactly. Also runs on AC but I don't have an extension cord that reaches that part of the yard.
