Hi Trevor,
Yes saving for a AC adaptor as we speak. I reckon I have entered a whole new level playing field here. The polar alignment was spot on Trevor and only time will bring issues to ahead! At present I am very happy with the start. I am using a Losmandy Side by side saddle and the two counter weights are handling both scopes quite well.
Here is a picture of the setup.

Thanks for the heads up
Regards Paul.
