The atom pro is rated at 25Ah, you need to check how many amps your equipment uses somehow.

Li-ion is usually 3.2v per cell so unless that thing is regulated in some way It's going to be pushing out approx 12.8 v, I'll admit that 2 kg is nice and light though 👍

It's not that hard If you have a few tools ...
It's evolved a bit over the years, now has a 14 Ah for the mount / camera and a separate 12 Ah for the dew heaters.

Hi Jammy, when you do get an idea of how many Ah you'll need, pick a battery that's around 2 to 2.5 times the rating as the rating on the battery is to 'destruction' 🙂
My AGM diy jobby is rated at 14 Ah, but If I use it at around 3 Ah the voltage drops from 12.6v at the start then drops to 11.1 after about 3 hours.
Any further and the cells become damaged.
PS -If you're willing to pay £299 I'll make you one 🤣

Maybe the dew heaters ? a 5 amp power brick might struggle to actually supply 5 amps reliably ?

Hi Leti, contact @FLO as It seems from your first post you bought It from them. They are really helpful.

Dental floss, wd40 then isopropyl alcohol 😏

I just chose the method as I couldn't see another way in APT, I set a plan up with about 20 minutes per filter.
When I look back at old captures, despite the zwo filters being 'parfocal' I think I can see a shift in sharpness on them .
I'm dabbling with NINA now so will look at the other options.

Good question, I've only recently set up an autofocuser and took the easy way out ... Refocus on a filter change 🙂

I've been trying the USA method of thermally insulating the tube and a very low power (0.3 amp) DIY nicrome strip just behind the corrector plate on my C9.25 and a short (10") dew sheild ... Looking good so far 🤞🏻

Hi all, seems to be an ioptron thing (as it's not noticeable on mount which is stiff when unlocked )
Found a neat (ish) way to fine tune it on my HEM27.
£5 on eBay. Wheel balance stick on weights.
Works a treat, need some clear skies to see if it's helped guiding.

As an engineer I'm finding this so frustrating 🤣 I just want to get my hands on it !
Wish you the best of luck though.

I'd be inclined to factory reset the router .. might be something stuck in the DHCP reservations.
Worth a bash ?

What does the NUC show in ipconfig as it's IP address and gatewway ?
And what is the routers IP ?

Yes as I mentioned before and to find if it has Remote Desktop installed. Of course this needs a screen/keyboard connected to the NUC to do that!
Yes, as in there is a difference ?
-
Also, can the NUC open the router admin page or even ping it's IP address ?
Possibly the NUC has a duff network card ?
-
Run ipconfig -all in the CMD prompt on the new NUC and the old mini pc to see if there is any difference .

Really nice capture.

Also, check the flexible coupling is not over stretched, it works better when almost closed if that makes sense.
If it's pulled open you'll get random uneven backlash.
