Thanks for the replies guys. However, I have decided that I am just going to go straight out and grab a Moonlight CR with the DC motor option, of which I will use an FCUSB with down the track so I can use my PC. I was hoping someone could be able to tell me what drawtube option I should use for the Moonlight focuser. My scope is a 12" skywatcher dob with an f ratio of f/4.9 and focal length of 1500mm. Is it correct that the drawtube is important as only some will provide full focus depending on one's scope?

And yes, I have decided to completely replace my stock focuser. Also, is it wrong to assume this setup would work with the ZWO ASI224MC and AstroLive or any "video astronomy" software for that matter?

Thanks heaps in advance
