RE: [VAL] Fantastic Fan - Automatic?

["Cruiserbob" <bob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If the technology works than I would prefer to have the full blown version.
Here's why.  Because I have an old coach with a stock Univolt that isn't
broke and doesn't hum, the technique I use for exercising batteries is to
run non-dangerous DC appliances while I am out on errands, to draw down the
battery.

With my current existing Fantastic vent I am afraid to leave it on because,
if it rains, than the dumb unit will just stay open and water will splash in
all over my computer.  Your new smarter unit would, as you describe "waits
until there is a pretty good rain coming down before closing and then does
not open back up until the rain has ended".  That sounds perfect for many
reasons.

It protect the coach interior from water damage while continuing a fresh
stream of air so I don't get that "vintage smell" when I first enter the
coach AND it exercises my batteries before and after the rain event.

I'm sold!
