Portable power?
Hi,
I'm currently putting together a portable imaging sytem. The idea is to have everything basically fitted to the OTA so that I don't have to connect/disconnect stuff and possibly forget to take some stuff away...
I will be connecting:
Focuser
Mount
CCD
Filter wheel
Guidescope
All through a 12v Powered USB Hub.
I would like to make up a power connector so that I can link
Mount
CCD
Filter wheel
Focuser
USB hub
Via a single power cable with 5 terminations.
That way I will have only 2 leads coming off the mount that I have to worry about routing to minimize drag.
Can anyone foresee any problems with this?
I have a 13.8v 10 amp power supply to take away - any problems with running 12v labelled stuff with it?
I have already trialed everything going through the hub with no issues whatsoever. It's just the power I'm not sure of...
cheers
