Pros & Cons
Pros
Lightweight and easy to attach to a tripod. Powered my telescope on a 38 degree night for 3 hours.
The powertank also has a red/white flashlight with a high and low brightness settings. Great for lighting up the area during setup or tear down.
The battery seems to be holding up. The indicator lights say it's still at full charge. Best of all, the charge on this battery lasts a long time.
Cons
Little lanyard with plastic clips isn't very strong and doesn't even clip on well. Power cable is wrong for my celestron 1100 telescope. There's no way to hook up dew heaters to to.

It is however a telescope operator problem because the operator did not turn on the “cord rap” function within their telescope as first action after turning their telescope “on”
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The cord rap function prevents the batter cord from getting twisted tight and more than 360 degrees

Also do not freak out if your telescope slews in the opposite direction when your desired star is almost right next to the one you desire to slews to
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
This seeming strange slewing behavior is ok as it is a function of cord rap and your desired and setup slew to approach within your telescope within your scope and not relative to the battery
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Its surprisingly heavy compared to how it looks
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I wish it had options to secure the excess strap when its attached to my tripod but oh well

The lid covering the usb ports and charging status led should have probably been made with a hinge instead of the weird rubbery plastic tabs that will eventually break mine did
