Curtains/drapes that allow breeze and block lights?

[path1]

Anybody have any ideas about some window coverings that would allow the wind circulate inside rv but people looking in or headlights would be blocked? With 100 degrees heat, our drapes block the breeze. Opening them allows light to get in and I feel like a fish in a fish bowl. Thinking about those window covers that you used to see in back windows of pick up trucks that allows you to see out but people have a hard time seeing in. Anybody use them? Any other ideas?

That's one of the reasons I took out my shades and installed blinds.

I don't think you are going to find materials that pass air freely but block light.

You can set up screens between you and the windows, that will block visibilty of selected areas, and air might flow around. Screens work for modesty, but not so well for light blocking.

What is an air mover? A fan? I don't understand why you would just not turn n the AC in 100 degree heat.

I believe that these folks want to have a breeze, so either they don't have the A/C, or are boondocking and can't run the genset all night....doesn't really matter what the temperature is, they are looking for options.

The air mover, would be an exhaust fan at the ceiling (like in the bathroom), or you could just get a small window fan and have it at a window where you don't mind having the drapes open a bit. Then you can close the remaining drapes, and the breeze will be pulled in under them.

As for the front, you could even just hang a sheet, to block people looking in the front.

Good luck, Happy Camping:)

What you must do is close your drapes tightly, and use air movers. At night you have the kitchen air mover sucking air out of the rig, and the only source in is the bedroom, allowing a good flow of air with low noise level.

During the day, the main mover is in the bedroom, but the people inside are enjoying cool air in the living area.

If the light on the INSIDE is brighter than that on the OUTSIDE you'll be able to see in anyway. Next time you see one of those trucks at night, ask them to turn on their dome light and then look in the back window. During the day, the outside is brighter than the inside so you can see out but no one can see in. What you're looking for does not exist as of yet....you can look at SunGuard sunscreens that work great during the day but again, not at night.....Dennis
