Celestron Car Battery Adapter

Technical Details

The pursuit of the perfect night sky often leads the amateur astronomer away from the convenience of AC power sources. This quest for the darkest skies frequently necessitates going off-grid. In such circumstances, the prevalent method to energise your telescope is through a portable 12V battery pack, such as the Celestron PowerTank, or by utilising power from your vehicle's battery via the cigarette lighter. The Celestron Car Battery Adapter is the essential accessory for connecting any Celestron computerised telescope to a DC power supply or car battery. Insert the round post into the 12V input jack on your telescope's drive base, and connect the power connector into your vehicle's cigarette lighter outlet or your power supply. The cord extends to a generous 25 feet, providing ample reach between your telescope and 12V power source. The barrel connector is compatible with any telescope that utilises a receptacle with an external diameter of 5.5mm, an internal diameter of 2.1mm and a "tip positive" polarity.
