  1. I don't think so as the seestar uses Wi-Fi and Bluetooth at the same time , I fire up my tablet open the app till it's all up to date then turn seestar on
  2. Update I think there was a problem with my internet at home , the apps worked as normal this morning, so I will remember that abnormal internet mean you can stream movies but can't use seestar app
  3. Hi everyone this is strange my seestar has been working really nicely till tonight , the app comes up with internet abnormal fail to load weather , the internet is working 100% so tried with my phone and I get same message so it's not my tablet I have uninstalled on both phone and tablet then put app back on still the same it say the same thing ? Also now if I tell it to go to a target it finds it but the screen does not change to the the imaging screen as it used to do ?
  4. Hi guys seestar has an update out 21/3/24
  5. Hi and welcome I use the celestron lithium power pack and they work really well not cheap but worth every penny, most of the summer I am at a darker site and these keep me going for about 24 hours in total I have two of these https://www.firstlightoptics.com/batteries-powerpacks/celestron-lithium-lifepo4-powertank.html And one of these https://www.firstlightoptics.com/batteries-powerpacks/celestron-lithium-lifepo4-powertank-pro.html
  6. Your need a T adaptor with your cameras thread one end and a 1.25 nose on the other https://www.bing.com/aclk?ld=e80D4Q2n4JO3cPyh38y3jjRTVUCUz5P02mzAR38jbx9AyGmInPG4ULMN4V0vwn6FD7d3T-6cSXYrcaQjxkMGCqYcj12aU-wzQTm_pbkuulsmrUXEdqABkueqGnyA_EemyyVb7la5kTiHWHVXtgR2yDnX4dp5xD-zus87Aqffwf5qb1VIwlxR3cQaZ8Qqvjv7zE2muOAw&u=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&rlid=7fcf535e37a71f37d87036a885937b09
  7. You can also use stellariaum if you go into search it will give you arrows on your phone to take you to that target
  8. Hi what about using your phone with Astro hopper works well on any scope , so you can buy a nice dob and use your phone for target hunting
  9. 4 for me as well , Orion optics VX8L , messer bresser refractor 127/1200/ , skymax 180 pro , DayStar solar scout HA scope , seestar s50
  10. Never is Paul bad time of year weather is pants , I PM you mate
  11. Paul was going to ring you and ask how things are but after reading this sounds like your not having fun mate , hope you get it sorted
  12. At last only 23 hours late but its now here and thanks Giles
  13. Well I got nothing , I should have been a seestar that I got from Giles he paid next day guaranteed by 1 o'clock delivery well 1 o'clock came and went , strange I thought it you post on a Thursday and it's next day that's Friday , not any more royal mail delivery when they feel like it , hope it may be tomorrow
  14. I had a limited budget so I got the DayStar solar scout and it's brilliant ,amazing views , you can get some surface details but not as much as a double stack but I could not afford 2K for a Lunt and 2.5K for the double stack , I did look at the DayStar quark but wanted a grab and go solar set up , I also think my refractor at 127/1200 may not work well with a quark ?
  15. Hi I have software on my Tab 7 lite
  16. Washing powder works well too better than rice just put open tub in a big bag with the device and then seal it the washing powder will pull any damp out
  17. I do like the HEQ5PRO I did the Rowan belt mod as soon as I got it and it's well worth it ,the head unit fits nicely in an aluminium flight case
  18. The counterweight bar is in the head just open bottom clutch and it slides out
  19. How about this https://www.amazon.co.uk/sourcing-map-Silicone-Flexible-Stopper/dp/B0CF5CBRN2/ref=sr_1_16?content-id=amzn1.sym.306fc632-b708-44a1-b889-4a72bb15bd0a%3Aamzn1.sym.306fc632-b708-44a1-b889-4a72bb15bd0a&keywords=rubber+plugs+for+holes&pd_rd_r=809c50e0-6a62-4394-95c1-007cc5b96c03&pd_rd_w=Qhx2G&pd_rd_wg=c2Q0x&pf_rd_p=306fc632-b708-44a1-b889-4a72bb15bd0a&pf_rd_r=D03JXXKTWAY7JWAWXJBG&qid=1707938620&sr=8-16
  20. Congratulation Nigella I can't believe you have not got a number one mug
  21. Hi I have 3 celestron power packs not cheap but work really well , one is now 4 years old and still powers well , I have never gone the lead acid route but to the weight and they can stop giving the 12volt 2 amps long before they go flat and this will mess up the tracking A little while back my wifi dongle went bang the the celestron power pack shut off before my mount could get damaged so I am very glad I use them I have 2 of these https://www.firstlightoptics.com/batteries-powerpacks/celestron-lithium-lifepo4-powertank.html And one of these https://www.firstlightoptics.com/batteries-powerpacks/celestron-lithium-lifepo4-powertank-pro.html
  22. Hi Dave welcome to the site of amazing people that are always ready to help
  23. Hi if you go into manage networks on your phone you can tell it to forget that network , you need to connect to the Wi-Fi first on your phone should come up as Synscan and some numbers once connected it will tell you it does not have internet also turn off auto connect to any other networks you have on your phone that are paired with your phone , once it's connected to sw Wi-Fi on your mount butw go to the app and connect to the telescope
  24. Nigella, that is brilliant I would love to be able to take that photo
