The Celestron Power Tank solves your portable power problems by giving you an all-in-one 12V DC power supply for operating your telescope in the field. This 8.65 lb. sealed-case rechargeable battery works with all telescopes that can be powered by a 12V DC external power supply.

The Power Tank has all of these features:

  • 7 amp hour capacity (somewhat less if used in temperatures below 32 degrees F), enough for several nights of observing with most telescopes

  • two cigarette lighter plug outputs for powering scopes, with sliding covers to keep them dirt- and debris-free when not in use

  • separate recessed male 3V, 6V, and 9V DC 5mm pin jack outputs for powering accessories (tip positive, ring negative, 1 amp maximum load)

  • separate 8’ long DC power cord for connecting from one of the cigarette lighter plug outputs on the Power Tank to the 12V DC input on a Celestron telescope

  • very, very bright 800,000 candle power built-in spotlight for scope setup/breakdown and for finding your way across a dark field (definitely not for use at star parties if you want to preserve the dark-adapted vision of those still observing)

  • bright built-in red lens flashlight for scope setup and breakdown (too bright for reading star charts; a variable brightness LED flashlight is still best for that)

  • separate on/off switches for scope power, flashlight, and spotlight

  • external 110V AC recharger

  • carrying handle

  • shoulder strap.

In addition to powering Celestron scopes, the Power Tank can also be used with 12V Meade scopes, including current LX200GPS models. However, a Meade #607 DC cord is needed to connect the Power Tank to a Meade 12V scope due to the difference between the sizes of the 12V DC input plugs on Meade and Celestron scopes. Because the Power Tank has a 12 volt DC output, it cannot be used with older Meade non-GPS LX200 scopes that require an 18V DC external power supply.
