Nexstar 5i powercord problem
      05/31/08 02:55 AM

I just found this thread in the forum tonight about sick PST's. I am wondering if a new question would revitalize this forum or just help to inform me.

Rather than a solar scope problem, I have a Nexstar 5i that Celestron gave me to take to the Fiji Islands to do some astronomy teaching in 2004. I still use it regularly for local community star party's. However the power cord has failed and I am relegated to using the 8AA battery pack that only lasts for about 4 ~ 5 hours tracking.

Can you tell me if there is anyone here that can advise me for a new power cord that runs from the the scope tripod base to the 12V portable battery? I cannot raise anyone at the Celestron phone in Torrence CA.

Thanks for any info. As always, I thoroughly appreicate your candor.

respectfully,
Mark
