NexStar 4 SE AC Power supply


Recommended Posts

As I will mainly use this at home I am looking for a ac power supply to power it. Cannot find one on the several telescope sites I looked at. Any suggestions?

thanks

ps I don't want a power pack but a wall transformer.

I bought this power supply for my Nexstar 8SE, so far it works brilliantly. I accept it is a little over priced, but I have no qualms about spending the money on it, feels like a decent supply. Only thing the cable from the power brick to the plug is a little short as I keep mine in a weatherproof box.

I run mine as below :

Should be fine, I just have an RCD in the kitchen, a weather resistant outdoor extension cable to a weather resistant enclosure, inside which sit the AC adapter and 12v transformer for me dew heater, I keep a few silica gel bags in there to help with moisture and so far had no issues. After 4 hours of usage I checked the temperatures inside and the power brick/transformer were barely warm to the touch and none had any condensation on them, this was in sub zero winter temperatures so I'm more than happy with the safety personally.
