Tim Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 So it's a cold clear, moonless night...............(ok there's fires and fireworks), but basically it's one of those rare occasions,.....Our power keeps flicking off, has gone three times now and reset the Obsy to scratch each time To make matters worse, we just phoned, and they are turning it off altogether at 8.30............Where's a Dob when you need one :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Ouch! These things never seem to happen when it's cloudy.I remember one night all our street lights went out. I just got out to the scope wanting to see what the sky was like without all our mass of local lights, and of course, the power came back on just while I was getting the view into focus Must remember to dash out next time it happens!
