EQtooth question

[Teslar]

I'm aware you can buy these for either the eq6 or eq5 but as I've got one for my NEQ6 I'm hoping I can get an adapter that would allow me to use it with my HEQ5 as well. Does anyone know if one exists and can point me too it. Much appreciated

Says HEQ5, doesn't seem to say EQ5 which you do.

Reading it it sounds af if the 2 mounts have different units, which would imply that the connectors and/or pins are different. Otherwise I would have said that EQMOD simply used different gear ratios in order to control the mounts. I recall that the Meade ETX-90 handset can be used on the ETX-70 simply by altering the numbers of teeth that the handset thinks each drive has. So would have thought similar for this.

They come in two flavours Eq6 and Eq5 in terms of the connector. What I'm looking for is a female D connect to the RJ45 so I can connect the EQ6 9-way Dtype connector on the EQtooth cable to the RJ45 connector on the HEQ5 that way I can use the EQtooth on both mounts

[Teslar]

The normal handset can be used on either mount with the correct cable to I'm assuming the EQtooth will as well so long as I can find an adapter to connect to the other mount

If anyone is using one of these can they confirm if they are powerful enough to work from outside to inside of a garage? Or are they line of sight usage in reality?

Thanks
