Hi all, does anyone know if any of the existing Meade electric focusers work with the ETX LS? I notice there is a plug for the focuser on the ETX LS panel. Thank you.

ebeyonder,
  On page 14 of the manual for the 6" LS-6 ACF and 6" LS-6 SC you can find the following:

Electronic Focuser Jack: Plug in the optional
Meade Zero Image Shift Micro-Focuser (P/N
07080) for precision focusing control.


 So it does seem you can use an electric focuser.  I do not have an LS but I do have an 8" LX200GPS and really enjoy the micro-focuser.  Hope this helps.

JMI also make an auto focuser but it has its own controller and power. Doesn't need to plug into ETXLS.
