I have not utilized this asset yet, but as the nights get longer and I need to have more power available for my new Nexstar 8SE to roam the skies.

Works perfectly. Right item at the right price. Just took a little long to get here, but Adorama kept me informed and I am very happy with them as well as the product.

I purchased the Celestron AC Adapter Model 18778 adapter primarily as a spare AC adapter for recharging my Nexstar after long periods of inactivity. I own a Celestron Nexstar 11 GPS telescope (purchased in 2001) and I still have the original Celestron AC adapter (Model 18773) that came with my telescope. The Celestron AC Adapter Model 18778 is much lighter than the Celestron AC adapter (Model 18773). The Celestron AC Adapter Model 18778 fits tight in the 12v power port located on the bottom portion of the Nexstar 11 GPS telescope drive base. It plugs in correctly at the wall outlet without any problems. When I power up the Celestron Nexstar 11 GPS telescope with the Celestron AC Adapter Model 18778 plugged in, it starts up normally and everything works fine on the telescope. Normally, I use portable battery packs for power when camping out with my Nexstar 11 GPS telescope. However, when an AC outlet is available near the telescope when camping out, I use the AC adapter. I am satisfied with the Celestron AC Adapter Model 18778 and I would recommend it to others.

I can only attest to this working with Celestron telescopes but if the adapter plug will fit your mount and your mount requires 5 or less amps this will work. It provides very steady power to my mount and I really like that it has a threaded adapter and screw to lock it in place to prevent accidental disconnection at the mount. I'm a believer that for items like this to stick with OEM products but it should work with other brands, again, if it fits.

The Celestron AC Adapter work just as described for my Celestron CG5 GoTo mount with a Celestron OTA 9.5"

Adapter provides good power to scope without any problems -- works fine with long extension cord.

This product does exactly what it says, and I'm glad I won't be burning through as many batteries while stargazing in the backyard.

A must have for your Celestron Telescope. Watch that it doesn't start wrapping around the stand to your telescope when your out observing. My telescope has a cord wrap feature that will stop when it feels the cord starting to tug.

Does the job so I don't need to use a power pack. I need to use an extension cord because I have no observatory to use it in.

Does the job, a longer cord would be nice but I have a fairly long outside extension cord, I like not having to use my power pack.

It will pay for itself in no time vs cost of batteries

It's designed by Celestron for Celestron Scopes, has a higher amperage rating then the generic ones available from the local telescope shop. I like the idea that the 1120v plug is separate from the converter so I don't have to use an extension cord to power the adapter.

The product works as advertised.

Its an AC adapter, one end plugs into your scope mount, the other end plugs into a 110v wall outlet. Voila - no batteries necessary. Congratulations.

Fits firmly into my 2008 nexstar 8SE base connection without falling out or disconnecting. I don't know if Celestron fixed the jack on the telescope or the adapter plug?
