If this is what plugs into the scope, i would be very wary of snags, and also shorting the exposed tips of the stereo type plugs, as these will be carrying 12V.
The MP3434 is shown having 90deg plugs, which is a much better all round fit into the scope, but the unit is expensive ( but has good capacity ).

Gday Andrew,
And after reading your suggestions and checking Jacar web site I've decided to ring them tomorrow and have the one I bought exchanged for the MP3434 much more straight forward for my needs, really glad you mentioned the 4 plugs on the one I have, never even thought of that, and it could be a problem. You know if Bintel had have had the Meade adapter in stock even though it was $80 + I would have paid for it, would have saved me and people like yourself in the group at lot of hassle and time,but when she said they have there own brand in stock for $100 + NO WAY.Anyway thanks very much for your reply and I'll let you and the Forum know the out come. This saga will soon come to a end
