Hmmmm.. EcoCCD... strap a cockroach to your scope for the ultimate in environmentally friendly imaging.

Their QE is close to 0% in the red. They can't see you approaching with a red torch in the dark. Try it. Easy kill.

That's a shame, Marc. Can't use one with an ONAG then, I guess

Nope. No Ha/Sii for you either.
