just ordered a splitter cable but ideally a box cheers

Hi all just wondered if anyone could recommend a reasonably priced breakout box ie 12vdc supply in with 4/6 2.1mm outputs,i dont need the box to convert to 12vdc just split it thanks 

i would have gone with 3 threaded bars set into the concrete with top plate so fully adjustable if that makes sense

This is the one I currently use and it works perfectly down to a lower temperature than the one you mention. I can control it remotely with a relay board in my observatory as well.

i second this really is quiet and efficient mine looks the samer but with a different name i believe also has external pipe for drainage

the one i got has a small heater in i believe https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kemo-Electronic-M152-Capteur-pluie-Beige-Copper/dp/B000NI2QJC/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=rain+sensor&qid=1610727447&sr=8-5 although i wish it was more sensitive it does work pretty good,i have mine hooked up to a raspberry pi in my obsy which is connected to another pi in my living room via my network and my son has put a couple of programs on each pi which warns me when its raining ,it also monitiors a contact on my obsy door

Hi all just a heads up if you have a obsy with a dehumidifier  in,give the drain pipe a quick blow,just checked mine after a week or so and the end was blocked(ice) and the internal tank was nearly full meaning i just caught it before it would have stopped working cheers

Hi all just wondering how you insure your equipment in your obsy

When I recently purchased something from Astrograph, Rupert mentioned that they have the ability to manufacture custom adapters as well.

Thanks are they UK based

Try John Pearson from J Tech Design (john@jtechdesign.co.uk).  He has made a couple of adapters for me over the years and was recommended to me by FLO originally in 2013.

Best wishes
