The HEQ5 SynScan Pro GoTo mount
The stable GoTo mount HEQ5 PRO SynScan offers accurate tracking, autoguiding port and of course precise object positioning. It allows the user to set up any object or start a guided tour of the night sky at the touch of a button. The extensive database contains over 42,900 objects of the night sky.

The mount is suitable for telescopes up to approximately 12 kg, so there are still reserves for cameras, but also for a guiding scope.

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.
