Re: Installing the Migsel Shelf
As far as the sun goes, it really depends on the angle. If the sun shining directly on the screen, it's going to be hard to read. I think the advantage of this mounting, compared to the riser plate mount, is that the screen is pretty close to vertical, which means the sun will only be shining directly on the screen when it's low and behind you. With the riser plate location, you need to have the screen aimed up towards you, so there's a much greater chance the sun will be shining directly down on the screen.
I have the Migsel, and there are very few times when the screen is washed out by the sun.
HTH.
