Roger Haines is a resident of San Diego, California, USA, and member of the local Rotary Club. He developed a variation of the CooKit panel cooker called the Haines Solar Cooker that uses a double curve design made from commercial plastic bubble wrap insulation. The cooker uses a clear piece of polycarbonate that wraps around the cook pot to provide a glazing enclosure.
