That's correct. Raw 12v for the camera, Light Box, Focuser and Dew Shield. The DC-DC convertors are used for non-12v gear. 19v for Netbook, 16v for Gemini and 5v for USB Hubs (mounted on telescope). I've also got a 12v to 240v invertor for a cooling water pump for the camera's water jacket. Barry's comment is good. I don't have any such protection so I had better do something about it.
