The NEW iEQ45^TM PRO GOTO German Equatorial Mount

with 42-inch pier

The new iEQ45^TM Pro GOTO German equatorial mount is the next generation premium astro-imaging mounts from iOptron. We've made a few changes on the iEQ45 including:

Stepper motor (instead of servo)
Higher gear ratio
A number of visual changes (ex. plugs moved to sides, motor covers are singular piece, and more)

The iEQ45^TM mount offers the next generation GoTo technology from iOptron —not to mention built-in 32-bit GPS. With a payload of 45 lbs. balanced – it comes standard with a calibrated dark field illumination polar scope and 42-inch pier. It also fits both Vixen and Losmandy-type mounting plates. Its lighter weight (only 25 lbs.) makes it much easier to carry.

Other Features still included:

Losmandy/Vixen dual saddle
Die-caste metal tripod spreader/tray
