Software Bisque TheSky Fusion 12V DC Power Supply Unit 11.5A Max
- Maximum Amperage: 11.5A
- Powers TheSky Fusion and connected 12V DC devices
- Compact Dimensions: 8 × 12 × 2 in
- Lightweight for Portability: 2 lbs
The Software Bisque TheSky Fusion 12V DC Power Supply Unit delivers a stable 11.5A of current to run your entire imaging platform. This unit is engineered to power TheSky Fusion controller and your connected 12V DC equipment, all within a portable 2 lb package measuring just 8 × 12 × 2 inches.
Choosing the correct power supply requires summing the maximum amperage of every 12V DC device in your setup. For a common imaging rig—including a mount (2A max), a cooled camera (5A max), and a dew heater (3A max)—the total draw is 10A. This 11.5A power supply safely covers that demand with capacity to spare.
Software Bisque offers two PSU models to match different equipment loads. This 11.5A model provides up to 138W of total power, ideal for most portable and backyard setups. If your total calculated wattage from power-hungry components exceeds this, the 21A model is available and supports up to 252W.
To confirm, check the manufacturer's specifications for every 12V DC device you will connect to TheSky Fusion. Add up the maximum amperage (A) or wattage (W) for each component. If the total is less than 11.5A (or 138W), this power supply is sufficient for your needs.
Yes, in most cases. A typical Paramount mount, cooled camera, and single dew strip will have a combined maximum draw below 11.5A. For example, a Paramount MYT (2A max), a camera (5A max), and a dew heater (3A max) total 10A, which is well within the capacity of this 11.5A unit.
Exceeding the 11.5A maximum rating will likely cause the power supply's internal protection circuits to shut down to prevent damage. This will cut power to your entire imaging system. It is critical to calculate your power budget accurately and choose the 21A model if your needs are close to or exceed 11.5A.
For high-demand systems, you should select the 21A model PSU. It provides up to 252W of power, accommodating the higher draw from flagship mounts, large-format cameras, and extensive dew control systems. Always size your power supply to have at least 15-20% more capacity than your calculated maximum load.
The unit is designed for portability, with dimensions of 8 × 12 × 2 inches and a weight of 2 lbs. This compact size makes it easy to integrate into a portable imaging case or observatory setup without adding significant bulk.
This power supply is specifically designed as the power source for TheSky Fusion controller. While it outputs standard 12V DC, it is intended to power devices that are connected through TheSky Fusion's integrated power ports. It is not designed as a general-purpose standalone 12V DC power supply.
