>Using an LX200 without power is as exciting as watching the grass grow. :)

I assume the :) was the operative part of that quote. If not, you should
try it sometime. It is so easy, set up time is cut in half, you don't have
to worry about all the possible failure modes, and there's not image jitter
from the motors. For a quick peek it can't be beat. Then if the seeing is
good or there's an interesting event underway then you can power up.
