Power Tanks

Many modern telescopes require external power for computerised GoTo systems, tracking motors, dew heaters and other accessories.

Portable power tanks provide reliable battery power wherever you observe, making them ideal for remote dark-sky locations.

What Can They Power?

Depending on capacity, a power tank can operate:

  • GoTo telescopes

  • Tracking mounts

  • Dew heaters

  • Astronomy cameras

  • USB accessories

  • Smartphones and tablets

Choosing the Right Capacity

The larger the battery capacity, the longer your equipment can operate before recharging.

If you regularly use multiple accessories throughout the night, choosing a higher-capacity power station is often worthwhile.

Our Advice

A portable power supply gives you the freedom to observe away from mains electricity and ensures your equipment continues operating throughout long observing sessions.
