Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer Counterweight Kit (Bar & 1 kg Weight)

Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer Counterweight Kit (Bar & 1 kg Weight): balance is the foundation

An equatorial mount only performs when balanced: the counterweight compensates for the weight of the telescope and accessories, allowing the motors to run lightly and evenly. Too little counterweight means wear, tracking errors, and vibrations.

With just a camera and a wide-angle lens, a Star Adventurer works perfectly without a counterweight, but as soon as a telephoto lens or small telescope is added, balance becomes crucial for the tracking result. This set with a bar and a 1 kg weight restores that balance.

Features

• Weight: 1 kg (including bar)
