Observatory No 3

Mt Stuart

The working version of the rebuild - still some work to do on the roll off roof but it is now in a state that it can be used. The 2 original solar panels have been suplimented by a further 2 giving a total capacity of 840 watts at 24 volts - this is adequate to run 2 telescopes and ancillary eqpment for 12 hours - There are 600 amp hours of battery storage separated into 2 x 300 Amp hour banks.
