Kendrick Heater Controller issue


Recommended Posts

So I use a standard dual channel kendricks Astro heater controller (HC) for my 127 mak and eyepieces. Last night was the second night I had to use it and was not performing well. I run it from a celestron 7a power source that was indicating a 'green ready to use' light however the HC had flashing LEDs and the dew bands were not working. So I swapped to the 8xAA battery set up thinking the pull from mount and HC was too much but even w fresh batteries the LEDs continued to flash and didn't work for the rest of the night. Anyone ever experience same issue?

I should have mentioned that I have reviewed Kendrick's online manual for the controller to compare trouble shooting scenarios. None listed within the manual are in anyway shape/form similar to the actions of my controller.
