Problem Mike is that power doesnt grow on trees (To all the physics geeks, YES it does have stored energy though). So your limited on your power unit you bring along, plus the multitude of cables, setting it all up, then hoping you have enough juice to do it all night long.
Then everything in reverse again to pack up.
Or, just setup the mount/telescope/camera, smaller battery unit, plug in guider, start.

But to each his own Mike i suppose, we all have our quirks...
I like yourself like the portable Cray II Super computer with me too.
