As an owner of 127, 127 definitely! brilliant little scope!
And i think in newer they fixed primary mirror size, but I might be wrong. Just read that online somewhere.

Hi,
I just found this! Although I do use astap on my astroberry that version does not have this awesome feature. Bit as it would have it, something does not work on my end. I am trying to solve and get data using Dwarf2 smart telescope, but D50 base does not seem to be able to solve it, despite being a quite wide field. Here is fits.
I did try those tips and tricks

Some time ago I purchased Stellarium app, and then they removed that app or what and basically canceled the app, and then rereleased it and I lost my purchase, assy move if you ask me.
But I do not kind as I am more than happy with Sky Safari 6 Plus, it is great, i connect my telescopes to it( OnStep and Dwarf 2 using adapter app) it works as a charm, it has observing lists, object highlight fov indicators and loads of other stuff. Good mature app.

There is ZWO Seestar S50 now in as well.
It has narrower FOV, it is more competition to Vespera than to Dwarf, but at Dwarf price. Dwatf is Undoubtedly better for daytime use due to wide camera and wider FOV, also for those few big targets on night as well, but for most night targets Seestar is better option.
Dwarf sales will no doubt take a hit, but I do not know why would anyone buy vespera after this goes out.

I went around home and picked all wall chargers I have and checked voltage with my water pipe :
OnePlus charger 0V
Realme Charger 0v
Dell Laptop 0V
Some 65W usbc 0V
Xiaomi Charger 45V
Samsung Charger 45V
Official Raspberry Pi charger 85V
+Class usb Charger 85V
12V Mount power supply 65V
24V mount power supply 65V
So all in all it is possible to isolate currents in small package, but makers are cheap!

So all in all if I get this meanwell I, and OP are good?

I am having exactly the same issue, I swapped Chinese PSU for relativelly expensive local psu, ended up being basically the same on the inside. You can test it with electrician screwdriver/tester, it glows a bit.
And I use shelly smart switch, that switch cuts of just one line, and in Europe you can rotate as you wish. So if you rotete it "incorrectly" and live wire iz not cut off, it zaps even more.

Few more works with dwarf2
NGC4236 713x15s under steet lamp
M46 and M47 300x4s stacked in Dwarf2, edited in Lightroom mobile, and just Background Extraction done in siril I tried to extract star colors here.
Triangulum 300x10s
All editing done in siril and lightroom mobile if not specified otherwise

I would recommend you to contact DwarfLab they certainly have people from UK they have shipped already and know is it included or not.

Ok I just see in a last post I forgot to upload images and ended up being a fool.
So regarding import taxes in EU, I was said as a kickstarter everything will be covered. But it was not, I had to pay, but dwarf sortof compensated me.
Mguess is you should count on import taxes.
Regarding addons, only magnetic filter adapter should be bought.Then you can source filters from where ever.
If you plan to watch the sun, take ND filters straight away from them, although you can source them later as well.

Comet is 11x15s straight from the dwarf to Lightroom Mobile crop a bit of noise reduction and tweeking
Horsehead and Flame nebula
360x15s gain 80, EQ mode
Stacked in siril, then did photometric calibration and then deconvultion. Background extraction applied on whole sequence before registration and again on finished photo.
Cropped, and a bit of aditional editing done in Adobe Lightroom Mobile
Bode galaxies are right under streetlamp 300x10s

35 minutes ago, Elp said:
Is that 300s x 10 or 10s x 300?
dwarf 2 has a limit of 15s max exposure

It is spherical aberation together with coma, mirror was not polished perfectly. Well it is space conscious telescope, but I bought 127 mak now, perfect optical performance.
-
You just need that pinhole colimation/camera film cap and adjust it, it is good enough. My heritage has some aberations so it cannot achieve perfect picture anyhow
-
Fancy trick with heritage is that you can retract a tube a bit and then there is no focus you cannot reach, just watch for colimation

Welly when I ordered this on Kickstarter I had very very simple calculation.
Take most affordable, and most portable setup.
Dwarf is size of binoculars and costed me 290 USD as super early bird.
Most adorable + portable setup would be
Tripod - 50USD, some old EOS M that can connect to PC or Rpi or astrocam - 150 USD, Some acceptable lens - 100 USD, skytracker ~ 200 USD, raspberry pi for Platesolving and capture 50 USD
Would weight double, take tripple space, cost at least double and it is fiddly to setup.

@MalcolmP thank you so much I was playing for days with this, itnwas nerve racking, and then by S. Holmes logic, if we have exactly the same settings here, issue must be on another place, so I have searched and searched and remembered that I clicked Auto debayer option.
As soon I have disabled that solver did its job in 1.5s.
Thank you so much on your help I would have palyed with this settings for months I think haha.
Now, I got 18.98 SQM. I have also made home made arduino SQM and I am eger to test it and compare!
