Vario flask insulation

No. The copper (they should be copper not some other metal) pot scourers
are there as a heat sink, nothing to do with volume.

All the installations I have seen use a standard vacuum flask with no
additional insulation, but they were all buried either beneath/behind
the instrument panel, or inside the fuselage - anyway in shadow.

A key element I have read about, and all mine have been fitted with, is
copper pan scourers loosely filling the interior of the flask, so that
temperature variation within the capacity is eliminated.

However, I am no expert, and I look forward to some who are telling how
it really should be done.

I thought the pot scrubbers were used to reduce the flask capacity to
compensate for the capacity added by a long tubing run.
