    Brilliant videos 👍 I've been especially following your observatory build mainly the pier. In this video you mention the Mele Quieter 3 which is what I use, would you mind sharing which lead you use to power it from your power boxes. I'm in the middle of constructing a similar pier myself. Many thanks for the informative videos.👍👍

      @@stephenjlangford2451 Thanks so much Stephen! Glad you like the obsey build series 😀 The lead I use to power my Mele Quieter 3 is a standard lead which was supplied with the Pegasus Power Box Advance, 5.5x2.1 Round end plugged into power box, the other end I used an adapter, 5.5x2.1 to USB C, you can get straight ones or angled at 90dgrs, I’ve got the angled one! Hope that helps mate! Good luck with your build👍 Clear skies
