[isf-wifidog] WeatherProof WIFI Dog Routers

[Don Druce]

Thanks Dana

I tried a test box outside of my house last summer, specifically placed 
in direct sunlight with equipment running.  During the three week period 
of the test in August, I recorded inside and outside termperatures.  I 
had the exact figures stored away somewhere, but if I recall, the 
sunlight would increase the internal termperture of the box by about 4 
degrees, while the equipment would increase the termperature by about 3 
degrees.  This was deduced from the Max Internal vs Max External, and 
the Min Internal vs Min External.  Obviously the Min would be at night 
and the Max during the day.  The external probe was  shielded from the 
sun and rain and very well ventilated.    During the test, we did not 
exceed 85 degrees outside.  Everything worked just fine.

Typically our winters will bring us down to -30F for a few weeks at the 
end of January or early February,  I did NOT test my system during the 
winter based on the manufacturers specifications.
