Generator power supply to mount in the field
Hello all,
I currently power my NEQ6 Pro mount at home with an extension lead and the 240v power convertor I got from Bintel when I purchased the rest of my setup. I have had absolutely no problems with this system. However, there are a couple of events coming up, namely the venus transit and solar eclipse next year, and to a slightly lesser extent the lunar eclipse on the 10th, that if the weather forecast does not look good I am prepared to pack up my gear and travel to find clear skies. Now, without forking out yet more money on batteries and associated adaptors and chargers, is a 240v generator hooked into my current system a viable alternative? Is there a danger of damage to my mount? The generator I would be able to borrow, runs an off road caravan without any problems. I don't know the actual brand/model off the top of my head, but I know it isn't a cheap one.
Cheers
Greg
