I runan old SBIG ST8XE (and love it). The only issue with it is the large converter with mains plug - does SBIG or anyone else make a plug that will run directly from a 12VDC "cigarette plug" power supply?
I have tried it using an inverter, but it is a damned nuisance.
Hoping SOMEONE has a solution for this - SBIG choice of pin socket on camera makes jerry rigging one a PITA :)
IS this my only option: https://www.astronomics.com/sbig-dc-power-supply-st-7-8-9-10-2000-ccd-camera_p7740.aspx
PS: if it is not blatantly obvious, I know Sweet Fanny Adams about electricals :)
