But I might be wrong here, and I do suppose one can't have tem hooked up to DC out in the field

Leon, I intend to use a regulated power supply to power the dew heaters inside my Obs. I am aware that they require a steady power supply and I understand that powering the heaters all night on battery power is less than ideal.

I just need to find a regulated power for the heaters and my mount.
