Ioptron-iEQ45 GoTo German Equatorial Mount with Pier.

The MiniTowerTM II from iOptron has the same advanced and accurate SmartStar® GoTo technology as the previous mount, however it comes equipped with enhanced encoders and computer firmware.

You’ve seen the MiniTower… Now you’ve got to go Pro.Bigger!   No doubt you’ve heard about the MiniTower..

The SmartStar® CubeTM-A comes with our patented Dual Mount: Alt-Azimuth & German Equatorial, a.k.a. The Cube™.

The SmartStar® CubeTM-E comes with our patented Alt-Azimuth Mount, a.k.a. The Cube™. 

The SmartStar® CubeTM -G comes with our patented Alt-Azimuth telescope mount, a.k.a. The Cube™. This compact mount design is probably the most functional and flexible unit on the market. Both axis motors are built into a small single unit which is universally compatible with all telescopes using a dove-tail connection. In addition, there are no “dead spots” – so you can point your telescope to ANYWHERE above the horizon, whereas, other mounts block the telescope tube at certain points of rotation. This mount also comes standard with AC connection. An optional DC adaptor is available so you can plug your telescope motor into your car if you’re camping or at any remote location.

Born out of the popular iOptron Cube and iEQ mounts, the SmartEQ mount is the ultimate Grab N’ Go German equatorial GOTO mount fitting into almost everyone’s budget.

The new iOptron “Z” design mount puts the weight of the payload at the center of gravity allowing for greater natural stability. Given its payload capacity, this means the “Z” designed mount is unusually light—a nice benefit when setting up at a remote site.

Now available... the Kenko Single-axis tracking mount -- a compact, portable, easy-to-use, precision tracking mount, perfect for the beginner starting out in astrophotography with wide angle lenses.

Of special note is the factory-aligned, highly accurate polar axis finder. The polar axis scope is actually aligned twice -- once when the scope is assembled, and again when it is installed in the mount. As an integral part of the mount, it retains its accuracy and provides a quick, and reliable method of aligning the Kenko mount.

Works in both northern and southern hemispheres!
