  1. I forgot to show how im going to connect everything so here it is: I will connect the battery to my pegasus powerbox via cigarette lighter, and the powerbox will give all my gear power (2600mm,eq6r, guidecamera, mele quieter 3 mini pc, 2x dew heater and focuser) Im planning on buying this cable is it thick enough?: https://www.amazon.se/dp/B07D7G8ZJ7/?coliid=I1UANSMEPP6WXQ&colid=3GZ14DKTFIXXJ&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1
  2. thanks! but is it not better to use a 13.8V converter instead for some headroom? : https://www.amazon.se/dp/B07XTB9YCK/?coliid=I2YXRID7YVZSLS&colid=3GZ14DKTFIXXJ&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it
  3. Im planning on building my own powerstation so I can image from remote locations. Since a diy solution is SO much cheaper than a "finished" portable battery I want to build one. i just need some suggestions for a good battery (EU) My plan is to go with: LiFePO4 12 V 100 Ah battery box usb charging ports, cigarette charging port etc. I will connect the battery to my pegasus powerbox via cigarette lighter, and the powerbox will give all my gear power (2600mm,eq6r, guidecamera, mele quieter 3 mini pc, 2x dew heater and focuser) Since there are tons of different batteries I need some suggestions. I live in Sweden so the german Amazon is where im going to buy it from: https://www.amazon.de/s?k=lifepo4+100ah+12v&crid=2MA4JXXBEYRJQ&sprefix=lifepo4+100ah+12v%2Caps%2C83&ref=nb_sb_noss_1
  4. Soon I will buy the 2600mm pro camera and for that I need filters (36mm). I have until now used Antlia 3 nm filter with my 1600mm pro. (I live in a bort 6 zone) I need to buy a whole new filterset because I have 31 mm currently, that's why I'm asking. Is it worth spending a little extra for the 2.8 nm filter? Or should I just go with the "safer" option --> 3 nm? How are the Antlia LRGB filter?
  5. I'm planning on buying a Powerstation, I'm leaning more towards ecoflow river 2 max. Ecoflow seems to have much better reputation and support if something happens to the Powerstation. But bluetti alittle cheaper. Is ecoflow the way to go or do you have any other tips? (I don't want to create my own Powerstation)
  6. yea.. .I have also started to boost a starless version. Hmm... It seems that Its not only me who thinks this is to good to be true ;D
  7. Yesterday when I looked around on Astrobin I found this profile: https://www.astrobin.com/users/Wissam_Astrophotography/ and the first image I looked at was this one: https://www.astrobin.com/erq8pw/ Scrolling down and it says 4.2 hours! I know this is a super faint target and Im so confised on how he managed to process this and how he managed to boost the signal so much. most of his pictures have around 4 hours integrated and they all look like 30+ hours. I know that locations matters but he is in bortle 4 but I still thinks its to good to be true. I have read most of his comments and many thinks he is cheating, and some thinks he has discovered a super powerful technique. Im just confused and impressed. If anyone knows and want to share PLEASE either post here or PM me.
  8. I currently own a skywatcher explorer 150pds and I'm getting kinda tired of colomating it every time I setup (it doesn't need adjusting every time but I look anyway) Now I might me looking for a refractor instead. And I've read a lot of good reviews on AT115 EDT F7 and it might be the scope om looking for. I live in sweden so the eu variant is the TS optics 115 F7. I want pinpoint stars and no CA. (I shoot mono) I like the 150 pds because of the focal length (nice for galaxys) and it's f5 so it's kinda fast. So my plan is to maybe go for the TS 115 edt + 0.8 reducer to make it around f5isch and have a little more fov. I have also looked on some reviews on skywatcher makustov 190nm, is it a much better scope than 150 pds? Is it a worthy apponent to TS 115 edt? (I know it's not the same type of scope, but anyways) I use a dolly for those 15 m to my lawn so it's not a big deal on movung my equipment.
  9. Is there a big difference from 7nm to 3nm narrowband filters? I have zwo (V2) filters and I wonder if it's worth upgrading to antila 3nm filters? Can I keep my zwo LRGB filters? (I use an autofocus and filter offsets so the difference in focus is not a problem.) My imaging scope is skywatcher 750 pds (f5)
  10. Hi! I have a astromodded Canon eos 1100d with stock lens (18-55mm) I want to start doing some (nightime) landscape milkway photography. Im not sure If I should invest in a new DSLR or just a new lens (SAMYANG 14 mm f / 2.8) Im not good with dslrs and there are tons of different versions of them... I want Canon and there are 5D,6D 7D, Eos 500d, Eos 600d, Eos 700d etc... My budget is around 400 usd, Fulframe is the "best" but also the more expensive ones... but how much better are there than cropped sensor? What would you search for on the used market?
  11. I currently have heq5 pro belt modded and I might need to buy a stronger mount and I'm looking at eq6r pro. Is that the best mount for around 1500 usd? Ive seen that there is an az eq6r and it's alittle more pricier than eq6r pro, but what's the difference? Is eq6r pro the best option for my budget?
  12. What’s your thoughts on my Heq5 pro? Do I need to regrease my bearings? https://youtu.be/RcOsqyRYs48 update: Apparently everything looks good.=)
  13. thanks for the only answer=) I went for the 150PDS with baader coma corrector, it arrives tomorrow =D
