This also allows you to transport the RA assembly in a more compact, zero degree latitude configuration. If you travel to a star party at a different latitude, you can make changes to your setup very quickly. The large "captain's wheel" knob is also very easy to grasp and turn. Simply shift the position of the bar into a new slot without having to line up obscure holes referenced in the manual. Major altitude adjustments are extremely easy to make.For a heavy payload in cold conditions, we offer a 25 Amp Variable Volt Power Supply (PSVPW25A) Azimuth And Altitude Adjustment Is Convenient And Quick In the observatory, we suggest a minimum 5 amp filtered, regulated power supply like our 13.8-volt, 5-amp Power Supply (PS138V5A). You can take it to the darkest skies and power it with a commonly available 12V battery. Features To Enhance Your Observing Or Imaging Sessions Semi-PortableĮxtremely solid, rugged, high payload mount, yet the equatorial head comes apart into two components – a true advantage for a mount of this class.

If you order the 1G00GTO without the absolute encoders, you will be able to purchase them at a later date to install yourself. The latter two versions include the Standard Temperature Absolute Encoders or the Extended Temperature Absolute Encoders, respectively. We offer three versions: 1600GTO, 1600GTO-AE and 1600GTO-AEL.
The 1600GTO mount is built from the ground up to be a precision imaging platform while still remaining totally user-friendly. We have enhanced its design and utility by incorporating additional optional features like absolute encoders, sophisticated control systems and a precision polar scope to meet the needs of even the most demanding astro-imager or visual enthusiast.
Thirty plus years of mount design and building expertise has been employed to engineer and manufacture our new 1600GTO mount into the most robust, high-precision mount in its class.
