About this model

I recently got a Celestron Nexstar 6SE. If you have one of these, you know the built in AA batteries don't last very long. I purchased a rechargeable external battery from Amazon to use with the scope. Https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ME3ZH7C/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Now I needed a place to mount it. This bracket allows holding the battery and has a much easier to use holder for the control wand when operating the scope. There are two versions of the object. The only difference is that one has "helper disks" on the corners of the box to help with bed adhesion. I find tall, square cornered, boxes to be very difficult to print without having the corners lift. I just clip these off when done.
