All the cables have been extended to allow operation from within the study a few meters indoors. I used to use a 80 lt. grey bin with gaffa taped lid/ dark sheet on a card table, next to the mount but got fed up with the background reflections from the laptop screen. Just perfect now!)

Thanks good idea with the reducer I'll look into that.
The Daystar was just too cheap not to consider in the end especially when I have 2 refractors with motorised focusers which would have been added expense
