May be a dumb question, but I bought a used lx200 12" scope which already has a meade electric focuser. Can I use a zero image shift micro focuser along with the meade electric focuser? Or is one better?

I doubt it. If by "micro focuser" you mean a Crayford on the rear cell, probably not. You'd run our of back focus. Not sure why you'd want both, anyhow.
