Description

This is a group for owners and users of observatory domes manufactured by Technical Innovations of Maryland. This includes the Home-Dome and Pro-Dome and Robo-Dome (and related accessories).

If you have trouble subscribing, contact me though my website. Sometimes my spam filter blocks yahoo administrative messages.

Re: Reed-switch failure
Bob, I haven't had one fail but did worry that it needed some kind of redundancy. I did think of a second switch, but never installed one. It is such an easy
