Celestron 7AH PowerTank power supply details
The Power Tank is not just another 12V power supply! It has all kinds of thoughtful features that will make your observing sessions more pleasureable.First of all, we like the built-in handle and compact size. Hauling a DC battery around can be a real pain, and we can tell that forethought went into it's design. It is a 7-amp hour battery, which should be enough to run most telescopes for quite awhile before recharging is necessary.
The Power Tank has two 12V output cigarette lighter ports. They have a cover built in so that dirt and moisure stay out when the port is not in use.
There are three 5mm pin-jack outlets for operating accessories (1 amp max)...a 3V, a 6V and a 9V.
There is a built-in flashlight with a red filter cap. It will come in handy during after-dark set-ups!
There is an 800,000 candle-power halogen emergency spotlight built into the unit. It is certainly not for star parties, but if you leave the Power Tank in your car or someplace accessible in your home, the bright spotlight could be a lifesaver.
Since this battery is rechargeable, Celestron has also included a 110V AC recharger.
A DC power cord is included, meant exclusively for Celestron telescopes. If you plan to use this power source on a Meade scope, you will still need a #607 (or equivalent) DC power cord.
Finally, there is a built-in circuit breaker in the unit, and separate on-off switches for the battery and flashlights. We think you'll like the Power Tank!
