I put this up on the list to see if there was any interest and there's been a ton, so heres what I know so far.

I got this through a contractor who's been doing work at the U of O athletic department. They wanted to clean out a storage room and this was in it. It is not one of those over the bed tents. It is the equipment necessary to build a permanent altitude chamber, like you would see in a real deal testing/training facility. I didn't know exactly what it was but someone mentioned a "greenhouse lookin' thing that makes it seem like you're really high up." So I jumped on it.

I don't know that all the parts are there, I'll check that out this week. It's all still wrapped up on a pallet and I'm out of town this weekend. There isn't much paperwork with it so someone would really have to know how to hook the thing up.

Once I get a chance to plug everything in and make sure it's in working order, I'll post a price on OBRA list. This is high end stuff. I'll probably ask $3-5,000. But if someone knows what they're doing they could end up with a very cool facility for probably 10% of the cost of a brand new unit.

Thanks for the interest
