Can't buy my camera this month

[jfox61]

Well, spotted, I hope, a bargain on Ebay tonight. This means I have now spent my monthly allotment on Astro gear. This means I can't now afford my Atik Titan:(. So please tell me I got a good deal to make me feel better.

Basically, I have bought a True Tech Super Slim filter wheel. It's their motorised RS232 version. £199 on Ebay free postage. Kit comes with Wheel, 2 disks (5 hole 2" and 8 hole 1.25") about 5 ring adaptors for different camera threads software and some other bits and bobs

I don't know much about these but they seem to retail on their site for between £399 and £425. The RS232 version is fully supported but discontinued as it's superceded by the USB version. To all intents and purposes they are the same wheel.

Does anyone have any experience with them? If so what are they like? I really hope I haven't wasted my money, but since a motorised wheel by any manufacturer is upwards of 400 quid, I took a chance and bought this before the camera.

Chicken before the egg do you think?

You can get a new one a little cheaper than you thought - The Starlight Xpress wheel is £295. But it still seems like you got a good deal.
