Wowsers, high tech indeed.
Seeing wasn't really up to it though, as you say. Bodes well for a decent day though. Is it worth thinking about something like a "space-blanket" type cover for the tube, to keep the heat out. I have the same sort of headache, I built a full aperture filter for the front of the 10" newt, C/F (so, dark/black) tube, and suffer the same thermal issues.
