I recently bought an 8" Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope that has a GoTo mount requiring power. Though the scope comes with a battery compartment requiring eight AA batteries, they don't last long. As an alternative, this power tank is a portable powerhouse to not only supply power to your scope and other gizmos, it also has a white LED floodlight, as well as a red light so as not to destroy your night vision while you're gazing up at the heavens. Another nifty feature is it has USB ports to charge your phone, tablet, or computer as well. All in all, it is an absolute must buy for any serious enthusiast and is well worth the price. I highly recommend this product and have complete faith in it since it's made by Celestron. You won't go wrong with this one.

GOTO mounts eat batteries; with an automotive-type 12V adapter cable this keeps things going for awhile and can be recharged. Also has usb ports for phone/tablet and the such. Shoulder strap make sit easy to carry with your other gear.

When it first came out it probably great, but as in all electronics becomes outdated quickly. Newer models have USB ports to charge your phone or laptop. There should also be a clamp to mount it to the tripod. Newer model have lithium batteries.
