12v is standard for cooled CCD cameras so that's not an issue. I've already got a three big batteries in my micro obs for running my gear, hooked up to a portable solar panel that I rotate over the batteries.

I wouldn't expect the ASI1600 to measure ambient: it should measure the sensor temperature and if it's regulated, keep it at that specified temperature, so long as it's capable of doing so. If it can't do that, I'm not sure I'm interested. I've never tried dark scaling, maybe it's fine, but it does make wary.
