A baader click lock is approx 30mm deep so should push tube 15mm ish further into ota I used one on my 200pds but changed focuser to a steeltack using a threaded connection but I highly recommend the click lock very well made maybe someone using a 130pds can confirm this if using a zwo533mc with a click lock for NT

  15. Check the focuser is square to the ota Brendan first put the concentre in focus tube rack fully out then using a long metal straight edge line it up with the spider vane parallel to the focuser and eye the ruler edge with concentre body see if it’s parallel, my 200pds was out a lot which affected collimating, since then collomation has been a breeze .

Why not make a weatherproof box and run power via conduit to that with sockets for 240v with relevant breakers and house the Nevada in that you can use the 240 power for the lawnmower don’t use it whilst imaging though the neighbours will be annoyed 🤣 , I run 12v from my shed to my pier approx 16m run Via conduit and have 13.6v at pier using a Nevada psu .
