DeltaOptical 12V/6A Mains Power Supply with Car Socket
Many motorised telescope manufacturers choose a car lighter socket as the standard power connector. This power supply makes the most of that choice. One cable connects your telescope to your car battery in the field - and the same cable connects it to a standard 230 V mains socket at home. No adapters, no compromises.
One supply, two power sources
The DeltaOptical 12V/6A mains power supply with car socket delivers a stabilised 12 V / 6 A output, which is enough for most motorised mounts and telescopes with motor drives. The universal input handles 90-264 V AC, so you can use it safely anywhere in Europe and beyond - no voltage converter needed.
Silent operation during observation
The supply uses passive cooling with natural air circulation. There is no fan, so there is no noise. You can focus on the night sky without any distracting hum from your equipment.
Built-in protection for your equipment
Short-circuit, overload, and overvoltage protection is built in as standard. The supply carries Class II protection, which means it requires no earth connection and is safe to use in a wide range of outdoor conditions.

What telescopes and mounts is it suitable for?
This supply works with any motorised telescope or mount that uses a standard car lighter socket for power. This includes many popular GoTo and motor-drive mounts from brands such as Sky-Watcher and others. If your mount or telescope uses a 12 V car-socket connector, this supply will power it reliably from a standard wall socket.
Ideal for home and field use
Whether you observe from your garden with a mains socket nearby or travel to a dark-sky site where you rely on a car battery, this single power supply covers both situations. Pack it once and use it everywhere.
