Planning on getting a Battery for my equipment
Kimboman replied to Amajed's topic in Discussions - Scopes / Whole setups
Hi I recently purchased the Celestron lithium power tank and I have been very impressed by it One good feature is the red and white lights which are very handy, it is also fairly small making it very portable. It is reputed to give 7 hours use on my Celestron 6se,it is far superior to using aa batteries -
