Cheap eBay Lithium 12V power source. Opinions needed.

Hi All,

First time poster and complete newbie here. I'm looking at purchasing my first telescope very shortly and require some advice/opinion about a power source.

I plan on purchasing an Orion SkyQuest XT10G which requires an external 12V power source. Pretty sure it shouldn’t draw any more than 2Amps. Anyone feel free to correct me here. At this stage I don’t plan on running any extra accessories just the scope.

After looking around I stumbled on this device on eBay:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/14000mAh-...item3cde0c17b4
It’s small, lightweight, puts out 12V @ 2Amp, has a Lithium Polymer internal battery and apparently good for 14AH

Feel free to post your opinions please.
