I like that chair. I have a Chevy Bolt electric car and the big battery recharges the 12v battery, so I can run 12v systems all night without worrying about depleting the 12v battery. Given that, I can run a 12v electric blanket when I sleep over. It also powers the scope goto motors, computers, cooling fans, and phone chargers. I transport an Orion 16" xxg dob in the back. When the scope is set up I fold the back seats down and can sleep in the back. My office then becomes the front seat.

Thank you so much for watching and the comment. Sounds like you have a wonderful setup. What a great visual scope. EV’s are great for supporting dark sky astronomy outings. Keep looking up and have a great day.

Thanks for the info Jeff. I have committed to 2023 to finally getting out on more overnight Astro-Camps. including getting down to Calhoun. (I'm in Frederick, Md.)
How do these work for the over 55, comfort-accustomed demographic ?

Thanks so much Karl. nothing like nights under dark clear skies. I am well over 55 and all of my camping gear works well for me. I have a new setup for 2023 look for new videos soon that highlight the new setup. Clear skies!
