ZWO as an perm all sky camera

Hi All

i am going to get an all sky camera for my remote observatory, however the existing solutions seem a bit expensive for what they are. is anyone using the ZWO as a permanent all sky camera? any thoughts ?

Should be ok from what I've read. My 120mc came with a wide angle lens as part of the kit. Just have to protect it from the weather with a suitable 'window' .
