i noticed this with mine..ive been able to reflect my 4 reflectors in the middle in the same area. i have marks where the best angles are so i can focus it faster
Thats an excellent idea! Many fail at solar cooking because they don't take the time to be observant of the focal points, as to where they land. On a box oven, having a longer adjuster to prop the reflector gives you a wider range of angles to give the best temps.
You may want to make a video of how you adjust yours to help others be able to troubleshoot theirs.
Also, adjusting your reflector to shine directly on meats in clear glass will brown it more on top, but you have to watch it or you can get it overdone and make it tough. I usually adjust it on top of the meat after it has cooked thoroughly, the last 35-30 min. If you have more than one reflector, especially 4, it browns automatically because of high temps.
