Hello guys I'm having a problem with my setup, my power source are not enough.and I need a bigger battery for it. my equipment are: EQ6-R Mount using ASCOM ASI1600MM Pro+EFW / or ASI294MC Pro ASI290mm mini / or ASI174mm mini Sesto Senso auto focuser / or esatto"2 auto focuser Laptop 18v 45w normally I start at 7PM and stop around 6AM so around 11 hours. my current batteries can't hold my setup very well. so I want to step up and get a good battery after a lot of research it seems that the best choice is AGM Deep Cycle Battery 12v 100-130AH first, is that my best bet? second, I looked around for an AGM Deep Cycle Battery in my area, and it seems no one knows what I'm talking about sadly. but I found a GEL type battery called: VISION CG12-120X its a 12v 120AH I've attached a PDF file that might give you more info about it. I normally go out on a moonless nights, maybe 2 times every 30 days? I always charge my batteries after I use them. is this battery good for my usage? I'll buy a good charger (maybe this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/CTEK-MXS-7-0-Automatic-Reconditions/dp/B00604UABY/ ) ordering a battery overseas is almost impossible. Am I doing it right? or I'm missing something? Thanks CG12-120X.pdf

Sorry it took me a long time to notice your reply, I think (and I'm not an expert) you only need to upgrade your filters when you have a large camera sensor. the Esprit 100 ED allows you to reach 40mm (which is good) but you are not required to upgrade unless your camera sensor is huge.

Hi, this is my first time using my new Esprit 100ED, my first time processing using Pixinsight, and it's my first image using a Mono + filters. I loved them, can't wait to try on more targets. here's the result: Equipments: SkyWatcher Esprit 100ED SkyWatcher EQ6-R SkyWatcher EvoGuide 50ED Guidescope Imaging cam ZWO ASI1600MM Cool Pro ZWO EFW ZWO LRGB+NB 36mm filters Guiding cam ZWO ASI290MM Mini Seeing was avarage Location was in a Green Zone Exposures: Ha 11x1800sec L 39x300sec R 13x300sec G 15x300sec B 15x300sec Darks: 24x300sec 10x1800sec Bias: 70 Thanks
