Notes: -

Suggested reflective materials for solar cookers…

  • Aluminium foil is a great reflective material for building cost effective solar cookers,
    • Advantages – Cheap, easy to use.
    • Disadvantages – Creases and tares easily.
  • Reflective mirror vinyl is the perfect material for the home hobbyist solar cooker build.
    • Advantages – Self adhesive backing and highly reflective makes mirror vinyl easy to use and apply to any material.
    • Disadvantages – none.
  • Anodized Aluminium.
    • Advantages – Highly reflective.
    • Disadvantages – Expensive and difficult to handle / cut.

NB – Please note that reflective materials require a backing material, such as cardboard. For parabolic solar cookers, a suitable backing material is plastic sheeting (ABS, polyprop, HIPS approx 2mm thick) – not included with parabolic solar cooker templates.

    Hi Rob, long time no look at your site – temporary, I hope, absence from blogging. I like the templates, will order when my paypal a/c gets stocked up. Hope you are well, will bookmark your site and try to remember to visit more often. Playing too much chess instead of blogging! Can you perhaps re-review the old Dr-Awsom – I laughed just now when I saw your review following our disagreement! Dr.A is mostly harmless really! Go well, and drop me a mail. Bob

    This is really cool. I think a lot more people should use solar energy. We have an old solar cooker at home. So during the sommer we cook rice in it.
