Solar Thermal Storage
It took a while to get this going but we finally have a time-lapsed video of the building of the solar storage tank. This tank was designed by TSS (Thermal Storage Solutions) with installation help from Murphy Cell-Tech and Greenworks Solar.
I set up a webcam to get the time-lapsed photography of this tank being built. Unfortunately I had a problem on the second day of the build and missed some important parts. Fortunately, Paolo from Murphy Cell-Tech also set up a time-lapsed camera and his movie came out really well. Here is the link:
