Less hefty than the Atlas, but with the same drive motors, electronic features, and functionality, the Sirius EQ-G supports up to a 30-lb. load for all your visual or astrophotographic applications. It accepts either a GoTo or a dual-axis (non-GoTo) hand controller, depending on your needs.
With the GoTo option, the Sirius EQ-G makes a terrific upgrade into the high-tech realm of effortless, electronic object acquisition! Select from among 42,900 celestial objects using the intuitive menus on the hand controller, or take a tour of the finest celestial showpieces. The internal dual-axis stepper motors slew your telescope at up to 3.4° per second.
Includes an illuminated polar-axis scope, 8.3" dovetail mounting bar, and one 11-lb. counterweight. The tripod is remarkably sturdy, as evidenced by the 1.75"-diameter stainless steel legs and cast-metal spreader plate. Requires 12-volt DC power source or AC-to-DC adapter. Weighs 32 lbs., not including counterweight.
For owners of the Sirius EQ-G GoTo Mount whose version of the GoTo hand controller is 3.0 or greater, the GoTo hand controller's firmware can be updated over the internet.
