Yes, it's great to finally have a clear night again

I was completely set up for a night's worth of Cat's Paw imaging - just had to wait for it to rise above the neighbour's tree line - when I decided to plug in an additional dew heater for my all sky camera.

Unfortunately, that small 1.25" eyepiece heater tripped the 10 Amp automotive fuse on my 4-way splitter (I don't have a spare one) - game over

I was very tempted to jerry rig up my own splitter cable, but I've learnt my lessons the hard way doing this last minute and at night... at least I can have a good night's sleep!
