Same problem here as well. The shutter can be left on all the time with out the battery suffering, but the rotation battery is an issue.

I now run the rotation motor off a 10 amp transformer. Anything else doesn't seem to get over the initial power surge. That motor is probably the same one they use for a 5m dome - its not subtle!
