I own a CG-5-GT equatoral mount and everytime I have to polar align the mount, I have to knee on the floor, hold the tripod with one hand and use the other to point a red flahlight into the polar scope. All this process is pretty unconfortable. Because I have no permanent observatory, I have to set up the mount every time I want to observe.

To make things easier, I designed and 3D printed an adaptor which holds a red LED with a 3V button battery and its placed in front of the polar finder.

I have tested it and works great! I can now do the polar alignment in a much more confortable way.
