Re: 12" extension and RA/Dec Cable length

 

The 12" extension comes with the 2 "little ears" for mounting the Gemini higher up so there is no problem with the cables being too short...I've got 2 G11's both with the 12" extensions and never had a problem with cables being too short...

Here's the idea: Add a 12" extension on the stock head socket, mount the Gemini II on the stock mounting.
Will the supplied cables be long enough in such a configuration? (Given tracking, guiding, and remote running.)
Or will the 12" need to be bolted to the tripod, and the mount socket mounted higher so the stock cables will reach and work?

I haven't seen anything about longer cables.
