There is someone on this forum that lives in one, maybe they will speak up -
As I recall it is very hot and uncomfortable. I think also you would need to put a roof on it and in order to do that you'd have to reinforce the ceiling...or make the roof a seperate structure. Then theres finishing the inside and cutting windows doors and connections if using multiple containers. Seems like a headache that'd be much more expensive than 'conventional' housing with no incentives. Basically a handful of cons and no pros.
It might work / be possible for someone - most likely someone not in Hawaii. But if you can make it work - power to you
Aloha mai kakou
