Skywatcher Mercury-707 AZ-GTe - GoTo Refractor Telescope

Skywatcher Mercury-707 AZ-GTe - GoTo Refractor Telescope

The highly portable Sky-Watcher MERCURY-707 (AZ-GTe), has been designed to be controlled wirelessly with your Smartphone or Tablet, using the free SynScan App for iOS or Android. The AZ-GTe mounting, with its built-in WiFi module, creates its very own Wi-Fi network, so the mount can be used anywhere, without any reliance on other WiFi or mobile networks. After entering your coordinates into the app and following a simple alignment procedure, you are ready to explore the universe using the app´s intuitive touchscreen menu.

The AZ-GTe and SynScan App provides full computerised GO-TO control, allowing the telescope to be automatically slewed to any one of the objects in the app´s extensive database of 10,000+ celestial objects.

(Please note: The AZ-GTe mount is identical to the AZ-GTi, except Freedom-Find dual-axis encoders are not present)

The MERCURY-707 is a proven two-element, air-spaced achromatic refractor with a 70 mm multi-coated objective lens, and will provide rewarding views of the Moon, stars, bright planets and other night sky objects.

Important note about power supply:

To avoid loss of warranty, please use only the power supplies and mobile supplies recommended by us. Especially simple car batteries or sealed lead-acid batteries can lead to an under-supply, which can then damage the sensitive electronics of the mount. Operating a Skywatcher GoTo mount with a non-proprietary power supply not recommended by us is at your own risk. Thank you for your understanding.
