The charging unit is junk
By John James Martin
I purchase this unit for my Celestron Telescope. I have gone through two of these units. The charging adapter on the first one killed the charging circuit. Celestron replaced the whole unit, no questions asked. The only bad thing is I had to pay for shipping. I got the second one, plugged in the charging unit and charged it up. Used it and went to charge it again and the charging adapter had died. Called Celestron and said to return the whole unit. I explained that it was just the adapter because I could use a laptop adapter and charge the tank. But I had to monitor it carefully. Got the new adapter, it was bad. I now use a trickle adapter that I purchased from Walmart. Connected the flimsy power cord to it and that works. I also purchase a Black and Decker power tank from Walmart. It does not last as long, but it is my reliable back up when I am having problems with the Power Tank.

Good power source for a goto telescope
By Scott C. Johnson
I bought this 17AH battery to power my Celestron CPC1100 telescope. It works well powering the telescope. However, I would recommend an additional power source if you have a dew heater. The dew heater drains the battery in a few hours. When the battery gets low, the telescope movements became eratic (wouldn't stop on the desired object).
I would rate the battery higher if the charging cord were better. My charging cord died with one or two recharges. I ended up buying a smart battery charger (battery minder plus) which I plug in through one of the front cigarette lighter ports (not through the charging port). I briefly used a radioshack charging cord. However, I didn't have much confidence that it charged the battery to the right voltage without over-charging and damaging the battery.
I haven't really used the radio but the headlight is extremely bright and useful when tearing down your telescope for the night. It is a relatively convenient size for carrying and doesn't seem overly heavy to me.

This thing is a piece of JUNK
By Todd in Upstate NY
I have owned this for over 2 years now. It has been sent back to Celestron once ($30 shipping) and just died again. When it is not in use, it sits in the house in a plastic bin - charged every two months. Went to use it 2 weeks ago and it flaked out again. Celestron sent me a new AC adapter but that didn't do the trick. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT!!
