Likes:Replacement StarSense Hand Controller has a Mini USB port instead of the Phone Jack that comes with StarSense. This feature makes it much easier and more reliable interface to a computer to control your telescope.Recommendations and Dislikes:1. Replace the 3-foot coiled cord with a 6-foot cord with no coils. Very difficult to maneuver around the telescope with a short cord.2. Reduce boot up time when power is turned on. It takes 10 to 20 seconds, sometimes longer before the Remote is ready.2. The Remote will display an error message if the StarSense is not plugged. The StarSense must be plugged in before power is turned to proceed to the Alignment menu.3. Make the display larger and add a button or adjustable knob to change the intensity of the display. Requires too many steps to reach the menu to make this adjustment when observing. While observing, intensity is adjusted frequently if your are observing faint objects.3. StarSense Hand Controller does not have an option under solar system menu to select the Sun.

My problems stemmed from inaccurate description online.I bought a "Star Sense" kit which did not show a picture of the handset implying that it is separate item so I ordered this. I had to return it as one came with the Kit. The pic of the Kit showed a Hub as included but it was not there. Accuracy of the auto alignment appears negatively affected by high elevation >sea level, or perhaps it's just an inaccurate system.
