Hi guys does anyone know if there's a way to get the USB slots working at the same time as the 12v .

I dont see why celestron would design it this way

The manual says just one or the other.

NOTE: The PowerTank Lithium can provide power from the 12 Volt output or provide power through the USB outputs, but not both at the same time.

However you could get a 12v to usb adaptor and wire that into your power cable.

Yeah but it’s a great little battery pack it would just be very handy if the usb worked at the same time rather than having to get another power pack (smaller) for the dew straps/camera fan .

From auto shops can get a 12 volt outlet multi-port adapter for  battery pack

I actually got mine from Aldi, had 3 12 volt outlets

My power pack also has USB port

With my EQ5 SynScan mount, run direct with 12 Volt lead to controller
