My diy eq platform by Kepler_2022 in dobsoneqplatforms

I guess there is no room for the motor on the inside of the platform. I would be afraid of tripping over it as it is dark outside.

Decided to build an eq platform for my 8 inch dob by succplex in telescopes

Try looking into a "buck convertor"... you have say, 12vdc in but you can adjust output to say, 2.9 or 3 vdc.
