Thanks for the response guys! Sounds like the first thing to try is to get a suitable external battery pack and see if that sorts it.

The frustrating thing is that my Dad ordered a power pack with the scope, but it hasn't arrived yet. The scope shop lent him a battery pack, but they haven't given him a cable that will fit in the socket on the mount. :-(

Does anyone know how many Amps the Meade drives and hand control unit will draw, so I can try to find a suitable power pack until the real deal arrives? (That's another thing that isn't mentioned in the user manual.)

Thanks!
