This is my main imaging mount and is on the permanent pier in the observatory. It has a total payload capacity of 70 lbs. which is more that adequate for any of my equipment.

This was the first mount that I ever purchased back in 2020. It was a great mount for learning the craft, especially using a small 80mm refractor. As my equipment scaled up, I quickly out grew it. I still use it for solar from time to time. It has a maximum capacity of 30 lbs. I upgraded the saddle with the ADM version which was a vast improvement over the stock saddle.

The EQ6-R Pro is a workhorse of a mount. I used it as a 'portable' before my observatory and was the first mount to live there. It has a payload capacity of 44 lbs. I also upgraded it's saddle with the ADM version. I still use it on my scope-buggy for planetary as well as solar imaging.

This little goto mount is an excellent star tracker. The goto function makes it a great leap above the standard star trackers. I updated the saddle with an ADM version. It is the mount that I use for my portable setup.

This my first adventure into the strainwave relm. It is my portable mount that I use along with the Star Adventurer GTi. The main reason for this aquisition is for portability while handling a larger payload. I also have the pier extension along with the carbon fiber tripod,.
