Yes. I started with a laptop but moved to a mini computer and Pegasus Astro P{ocket Power Box Advance because I did not like leaving my laptop out at night. Many ways to do things in this hobby, no right or wrong.

Really love your setup. I just got mine today, little unsure on how to power it up. Power in says Dual DC5525 IN, not sure which one I should connect to. Thank You.

You can power through either one. The second input is there in case you need more power than can be provided through a single 5.5x2.5 input, which is roughly 12V x 10A (= 120W). Exceeding this is unlikely unless you are running dew heaters and/or a power hungry computer from the powerbox, but you can hook up the second input for up to 18A total (= 216W) if you need it. You can plug all your equipment into a power strip through a Kill-A-Watt meter to assess your power needs, or a battery pack with a power draw display (which is what I use). My total draw for mount, Mele Quieter 2Q running NINA and PHD2, cooled full frame cam, guide cam, filter wheel, and focuser is typically no more than 30W even with the cooler running full power. The new Mele Quieter 4C is even lower power and a lot faster as well.

@@AstroVagabond well my Wandererbox circuit actually got fried, the folks at Wandererbox were kind enough to send me a replacement unit. I am using it to power an Intel NUC(I7 processor) and ASI2600mc pro. Unfortunately, I am unable to power the AM5 mount resulting in cable management issues. What do you suggest I do? I am too scared to plug the second input. I am using Ecoflow River 2 Pro battery for my setup.

It's a managed device that can provide USB and power distribution to my devices. Very similar to the Pegasus Astro Pocket Powerbox Advance device.
