I was thinking of that but shops near me dont have that an ordering online is not worth it. I have a laptop charger that has the same connection though it is 18v. Im not really knowleged in voltage and how much is needed so will that be safe to use. If not I'll sacrifice the 10 euros and buy it online.

I understand all you are saying and suspect that, but I dont really understand this part. I update the controller by disconnecting it and connecting it using a printer usb cable. Thanks for the other advice.

Hello, first time writing here so please do say if I need more info in the comments. I got a Sky-watcher Star discovery 150 Alt-az. I got everything set up but when after finishing allignment and viewing an object, when I want to look at another it moves to the object and restarts. Its not random, it always turns off and on when going to the second object, it doesnt matter which object it is. Week ago it was crashing when alligning to a second brightest star. I saw some posts about it but they were all talking about it crashing randomly and the comments said to try a new power cord. I never used one I was running it on 8 AA batteries. The software versions is second to the latest and the latest version doesnt look so nice. Edit: The fix was using a 12v charger. Since I bought it I had no problems.
