EQ/AZ Harmonic Drive Sky-Watcher Wave 100i mount for astrophotography and observation equipped with harmonic reduction gear transmission. Equipped with a double Vixen/Losmandy coupling, ideal for holding 1 or 2 medium diameter optical tubes even simultaneously.

Weighing around just 4 kg, the Sky-Watcher Wave 100i mount is equipped with a transmission with harmonic reducer, ideal for supporting even heavy tubes without the need for counterweights.

The particular structure, one of a kind, allows the simultaneous connection of two optical tubes for incredible photography and observation sessions. This particular technique also allows the load capacity of the main optical tube to be increased by over 30%.

With the new Sky-Watcher Wave 100i mount, the new frontier of long exposure astrophotography is finally within everyone's reach. The particular construction scheme of the harmonic motion reducers present in the Sky-Watcher Wave mounts allows maintaining high compactness and, at the same time, achieving a high load capacity even without counterweights: without a counterweight it is possible to use the Sky-Watcher mount Wave with optical tubes weighing up to 10Kg. When used with a counterweight, the load capacity increases to approximately 15kg.

The Harmonic Drive AR and DEC motors guarantee, in addition to a high payload, also smooth and backlash-free operation. The reduction on the AR and DEC axes is 300:1.

Minimalist design with attention to detail and with body made of AL6061 aluminum alloy worked with CNC technique.

Wired connectivity thanks to the USB-B port, the RJ45 socket for connecting the Sky-Watcher SynScan control panel, as well as the autoguiding system with RJ12 port. Also equipped with a SNAP connector for connecting cameras directly to the mount.

The additional Wi-Fi and Bluetooth features guarantee stable and easy-to-configure connectivity with almost all commercially available hardware and software devices, especially with the Sky-Watcher SynScan PRO app for iOS and Android devices.

The Sky-Watcher Wave mount requires 12V for regular operation, with a consumption during the tracking phase of approximately 0.4A and up to 1.8A during the GOTO phases.

The connection of the optical tubes is possible with both Losmandy CGE and Vixen CG5 type dovetail bars.

The rich functions of the mount are completed by the complete block of the RA axis to facilitate the safe assembly of the counterweights and the setting of the HOME position. The mount is also equipped with red LED lighting for the spirit level and the latitude indicator to facilitate viewing even in the dark.
