Hi everyone, new member here, although I've been lurking and doing a lot of 'research' here since before Christmas '07 when I bought two TT One XL-S's, one for us and one for our out-of-state-college-student daughter.
Anyhow, I've been wanting to use my TT on my motorcycle, so this week I got a RAM mount and their new Aqua Box, ran a fused line up from the battery to the handlebar with a waterproof outlet, etc. Works great at night, when you can actually *see* the screen, but in the daylight it's pretty much useless. Between the sunlight washing out the screen and the glare from the Aqua Box's touch-thru screen, you can't see jack. I even made a 3" visor to go on the box from some black ABS plastic I had in the garage, still can't see jack. Just wondering how many people here have adapted their TT ONE to use on a motorcycle, and what have you done to make it where you can see the screen during the daytime? You sure can't hear the voice commands on a bike (at least not on mine), and if you can't see it, it's useless. Any suggestions? Thanks,
