Skywatcher Wave 100i Strainwave Mount - mount head for telescopes up to 15 kg

High torque. High precision. Low weight.

The Sky-Watcher WAVE mounts utilize the strainwave design with its high torque and compact construction, offering high precision and performance at an affordable price and low weight. With exclusive features not found on any other voltage wave mount, the new WAVE series is a very good addition to the very popular astronomical mounts from Sky-Watcher.

The Sky-Watcher WAVE-100i is based on a voltage wave or "harmonic drive" gear design. This concept offers a number of advantages, including high-precision tracking with minimal backlash - ideal for long exposures - and a compact design with a remarkable payload-to-weight ratio for using a variety of equipment while being convenient to transport.

The WAVE-100i offers a payload capacity of 10 kg (15 kg with optional counterweight kit) while being incredibly compact and lightweight. The Sky-Watcher WAVE mounts also feature EQ and AZ tracking modes with RA and DEC output positions, dual-fit saddles, latitude range of 0 to 90°, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capability, RA brake function when power is off, and a red backlit latitude indicator and bubble level to make setup much easier.

Polar alignment of the mount

The Skwatcher Wave mounts do not have an optical polar finder. However, they offer a very accurate polar alignment option in the menu. Start with a roughly aligned mount (compass and north/south latitude setting).

1. Carry out a 2-star alignment with the SynScan Pro app or the SynScan hand controller.
2. Then select the Polar Alignment program item and simply follow the instructions.
3. Repeat the above steps two or three times.

This will give you a very precise alignment, which also allows for long exposures.
