[QUOTE="Llew, post: 886178, member: 175007"] Fit for purpose I would guess. You will of course need a +5V supply for the optical sensor. I considered using mine for elevation control on my SMW polar mount, but it's difficult to find a suitable fixing point other than at the elevation adjustment bolt, but that bolt has a very fine adjustment travel. It would really need to be fixed somewhere away from the mount's axis to allow a greater travel of the actuator. Might get round to trying something one day. [/QUOTE]
