Power supply for HEQ5 pro mount.

Hi,

We have a Celestron Power Tank 17 (250amp engine starter) that we bought when we got our mount. I find that after about 4 hours of continual running for our HEQ5 that the light flashers to indicate low power source level and rapidly fashers shortly after. Could anyone suggest an alternate power supply that could run from the household supply. It is frustrating with fine weather to start on a new object to run out of power. However during a work night maybe the running out of power is a good thing....
Thanks Mark B
