Excelente producto August 16, 2010 AndresJ Excelente producto, estoy satisfecho con este producto, ya que llego a mis manos en excelentes condiciones, gracias a Amazon. Lo recomiendo y le doy 5 estrellas.
Good thing to have! August 2, 2010 Dan C. (Fort Wayne, IN USA) Good thing to have for your telescope when star gazing from home. Two minor cons: the connection between the adapter and the telescope is a little loose (almost like the male and female connectors are not quite matching); also, Celestron should have put the AC connector receptacle in the fixed part of the base, the part that does not rotate - now, I always have to be careful with the power cable so that it does not tangle or fall off when the telescope rotates.
AC\DC Power Converter April 12, 2010 David H. Jelle (Tucson, AZ) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This power converter is for Celestron Goto scopes and mounts. It is small yet provides the requied amount Power needed to operate these items. Price was great. Expect to order more soon for other equipment I have.
Must have adapter. March 17, 2010 Robert M. Adams (Utah) If your going to use your Telescope for any length of time this is a must.
Good purchase February 6, 2010 Terry J. Weller (Surf City, CA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I ordered the adapter so I wouldn't go through so many batteries when using our telescope at home. It was a great purchase and well worth it. As with many battery operated items, as the batteries get used, the device they power starts to slow down. This is the case with our celestron telescope. Not only does it slow down, when the batteries get to a certain point in their use, the star tracking functions stop working correctly. So, even though the 'scope has power to move, it's slow and and won't follow the star tracks. Not only that, but it won't even correctly star align on start up. But, with the power adapter, that's no longer a problem. The built in functions of the 'scope work perfectly and the 'scope moves with authority when changing from one object to another and correctly stays fixed on the object as it moves through the sky.
Any drawback would be having to connect it to an electrical cord and make sure you don't trip over it, but that's a minor problem. I'd definiately recommend this to anyone with a 'scope.
