RASC Hamilton Case for EQ6 mount and Battery

[Eric Golding Studio]

Congratulations Joseph, you now have a great mount!  I use an old heavy-duty bowling ball bag to carry my mount.  It has handles and is a good fit - although a bit tricky for one person to get it in there! Sorry, no suggestions about the battery.  Someone else will have an idea though, I'm sure.

Clear skies!

  Hello everyone,

  I bought the above mount and would like to find an inexpensive way to protect it in a case. It comes in a box with Styrofoam. It is difficult to move around. Any suggestions on a good case for it preferably something with wheels?  

  Also, is there a way to carry and  protect the marine battery to power the telescope. It is hard to believe that that there isn't something to house the battery as well other than having it bounce around in the car.   

  Looking forward to your suggestions. 

  Joseph  Pipitone
