Simplify Your 12v DC Telescope Power Cables

Описание: I will help you learn to re-wire all of your 12v DC telescope related devices so that you can lose all those heavy power bricks, stop losing power when your cigarette lighter adapter cables pull free, stop cable snags, and more easily balance your telescope!
The same concepts in this video can be used for any 12v DC application.
