Hi,

How fast does the telinga burn up the mic.  When you are holding the mic
pointed toward the sun are you apt to have this happen soon?  Guess better
keep on the windscreen

A true story is about a guy hiking in the Swedish mountains. It had been
raining for days, and everything was soaking wet. Of course also his
matches. But when he came to a cabin, and found wood to burn, he could use
his Telinga to set it on fire, using paper.

So don't place your telinga so that the sun can burn the mic! Consider that
the sun is moving...
