It does look very good Greg. I have found the TOA to have a very tight focusing zone also. I'd be interested to see how it attaches to the TAK focuser.

Hub even has dew heater ports. FABULOUS.

I use one on my Tak FSQ-106N
Looks like a great option also Lewis. Would you mind sharing a photo of how it's attached to your scope? Reading the website it was my understanding that one would be required to drill and tap holes in the focuser to screw the bracket on. Something I could do, but not with out a little discomfort!

Temperature measurement would be a must also. Im glad it has that also.
