I did some digging, and the most consecutive nights I've had was eight, from September 12th to the 19th, back in 2018. Took these with my Canon T3 and C80-HD:
Hope it continues for you, nicely done as well
All the best,

Re: Lunar Cycle!
Hi Harshil!
Nice work! This looks like an interesting project that requires a lot of patience but is fun at the same time. I just now saw your work and will pay attention as you continue it.

Many eyepieces, just not really expensive ones.

Really ?
You have done a wonderful job, Harshil !
I set out once to do this but managed only a few stages before the skies decided I was done.
I am enjoying your work.
Thank you.
