Thanks Dave, we moved from a Hypercam 183C to the ASI1600MM Pro as we wanted to use narrowband the 183C was a good camera though and unfortunately started the emptying every pocket cycle that appears to be astronomy / Astrophotography :D

Since buying the new camera we have only had one clear night so the curse still holds.

At least now you can build a darks library - no more graveyard shifts with the cap on the scope.
