Dluth I have the soloution to the problem with the motors re EQ6.

It's ampage, you need to feed the mount about 2 amps. My power packs were only putting out 500ma which is enough to power up the hand box but not enough power the motors.

I plugged mine into a proper 12v outlet and it works fine.

Hope this helps.

Thankyou - I'll try it!
Unfortunately the telescope is down at the beach house so I won't be able to try it for a little bit - but I'll let you know.
Cheers
