1. My Multi Meteor Cam Housing A homemade Housing with 400mm Acrylic Dome for 6 Meteor cameras. by Jochen Richert

2. Why 6 cams in one cabinet? Every time I run in trouble, that one of the housing had water or water vapour in it. It is easier to bring all the cables into one housing. Also heating and ventilation could be controlled easier. Only one maintenance point.
