Technical comment by Filippo: "EAGLE3 is not only a computer, it's the innovative control unit that both controls all the telescope’s devices and powers them all. When I’m at home, I control my EAGLE powered telescope that I install in my backyard and I’m in my living room. When I move searching for the best clear sky, the telescope is in the field and I stay in my warm car and control it as if I would be there! Thanks to the low power consumption, I don’t need big batteries, I can power all my devices also with a compact, light lithium one."
