Here’s a nifty little equatorial mount for small telescopes that makes a perfect stargazing companion for campouts and trips. It’s our all-metal EQ-1 equatorial head perched on three thread-on legs, complete with counterweight, dual slow-motion cables, latitude adjustment, and 1/4″-20 adapter. Set it on a park bench or large rock, or even on your car’s hood for an impromptu scan of the heavens. Also makes a terrific tracking platform for wide-field astrophotography with a 35mm camera! Height approx.14″, weighs 10 lbs., 5 oz.
