Hows the Mallincam going?

I was wondering how your use of the Mallincam is going.
Last night we were out in Edmonton for a second night of Sidewalk Astronomy day.
My buddy had the mallincam with him and we connected to my C-11 and tuned to M51 and even with the light pollution you could see the bridge between the 2 galaxies and detail in the arms .This thing is excellent for public viewing too.
Damn ,now I really want one .
post some of the pictures you have taken if you have any.
Needed a power inverter as it took a 120 volt power source.
But as far as I am concerned it blows the Canon XT Rebel I use outta here for ease of use and on screen menus and you can see what your focusing live not squinting through the Canon ....its a must have ..

I am not on commission.....ha
