Forgot to mention as well , I use a Canon remote power supply to my camera with a 5m mains power cord , so my internal battery is removed which also reduces heat in the camera over a long imaging session
I have my imaging laptop 2 metres away from my mount and it’s housed in a plastic tub turned sideways on a little adjustable table so it’s protected from the elements. Under the table is my 6 way power board, 2 x 7.5amp 12v powertech power supplies, Powered USB hub etc... I drilled some holes through the bottom of the tub to allow the cables to connect to the laptop
It’s a nifty set up and I copied it and improved it from Trevor Jones Astro Backyard
