Thanks Jay. It's pointing at Rho Oph right now. At 5C ambient, cooling is off. It was running, but very light condensation became a problem. I need to plot a few more voltages for small differentials, to provide margin above dew point. That will mean winding the internal TEC voltage below 1volt.

I pleased with the low power requirements. At a diff of 12C Toal current is 1 amp or less.

It's a bit ugly in the two TEC configuration. Balance on the mount is a bit precarious.
