Cracking 12v power supply

[Skipper Billy]

Bought one of these to power lipo chargers for my 'other' hobby but it works brilliantly when used to supply 12v out into the garden - perhaps a bit over the top power wise for a mount and accessories (375 watts!!) but brilliant value for money.

LOL!

I have just sold up my model helis (600, 550, 2 x 450) to make way for an astrophotography set up. Couldn't do both so I thought I'd switch to AP.

This has left me with a great 1000W homemade PSU which I used to charge 5000mAh 6S batteries. I am sure I can put that to good use with the astro kit.
