Hi all,
It has started to rain. I have the top vent open about 1/4 of the way. I have no way of covering the top, unless I can convince my wife to stand outside with an umbrella....I have no way of covering the top.

Do I have a problem with the small amount of rain that will get in?

Thanks.

    Nope.

    You can drape a piece of tinfoil over the top if you're real worried.

    Sorry for the double post.

    And thanks for the reassurance!

    After ranting and raving to my buddy about what this egg can do, it would be a bummer if it was not up to par.

    Depending on how hard it is raining, but probably not.

    If you are concerned grab a metal coat hanger and make a 'halo' of sorts. Have the to Circle at an angle so the water will drip/run down on the dome - you don't want the water puddling in the foil.

    Use some aluminum foil to cover the DFMT.
