⟪⟪ The housing (plastic version) ⟫⟫
Since having a metal box resulted in persistent problems with condensation, I made a new housing of plastic. The layout of the housing is similar to the metal one, only without a flash mounted inside the box this time. The plastic box is a Peli 1200 protector case.

The inside, minus insulation. When in use, I have foam in the trap to minimize the sound of the camera taking a picture, so as not to scare the animals.
