    I am planning to use the Eagle 3 Pro for my system. PrimaLuce sells a power cable for connecting STXL camera power inputs to the Eagle 3 Pro power output. Will this cable work for the STX 16803? Or said differently, is the camera-end connector on the STXL camera the same as on the STX camera?

    Mark - be aware that the STX16803 with all accessories (filter wheel, guider, adaptive optics) at full power can approach 10amps of current. You need to ensure the PrimaLuce Eagle 3 Pro can provide that much current - some of their earlier computers only could handle 5 amps. I had a fast look on their web site, but didnt see a specification for the output maximum current from the 12V ports.
