The harmonic drive can carry up to 15 kg without the need for a counterweight: enough for a large APO or an 8-inch astrograph with camera and guidescope. Head and tripod together weigh less than 8.5 kg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Skywatcher-WAVE-150i-Montering-Strainwave-GoTo-Wi-Fi-Tripod-2.jpg\" alt=\"Skywatcher WAVE-150i Strainwave GoTo mount on base with green control knobs and side-view scaling\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Skywatcher-WAVE-150i-Montering-Strainwave-GoTo-Wi-Fi-Tripod-5.jpg\" alt=\"Skywatcher WAVE-150i complete set with telescope and counterweights on unfolded carbon tripod\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mount works in equatorial and Alt-AZ modes, with polar alignment from 0 to 90 degrees. The dual-fit saddle accepts Vixen and Losmandy rails. Operation is via WiFi or Bluetooth with the SynScan Pro app on Windows, iOS, or Android, compatible with Stellarium and other planetarium software. GoTo, autoguiding, and PEC are onboard, plus the RA brake for safe setup and disassembly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Included<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>WAVE-150i mounting head with strain wave drive<\/li>\n\n\n<li>WAVE Carbon Fiber Tripod (5.3 lbs, legs \u00d81.6 in)<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Dual-fit saddle for Vixen and Losmandy rails<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Transport case<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Featured accessories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The optional SynScan hand controller provides physical control in addition to the app. A robust 12V power supply is recommended for long astrophotography nights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For whom yes, for whom no<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Suitable for: demanding astrophotographers who transport heavy optics to dark sites and don't want to lug counterweights. Not suitable for: those staying under 10 kg; the WAVE-100i set is lighter and more affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Specifications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Type<\/strong><\/td><td>Strainwave GoTo Mount with Carbon Tripod<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Max. load capacity<\/strong><\/td><td>15 kg (without mandatory counterweight)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Head weight \/ tripod<\/strong><\/td><td>5.8 kg \/ 2.4 kg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Modi<\/strong><\/td><td>Equatorial and Alt-AZ, 0 to 90 degrees<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Controls<\/strong><\/td><td>WiFi or Bluetooth (SynScan Pro), PC via USB<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Saddle<\/strong><\/td><td>Dual-fit: Vixen and Losmandy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Tripod<\/strong><\/td><td>Carbon, 50 to 74.7 cm, legs \u00d840 mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Nutrition<\/strong><\/td><td>12V DC<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The disassembly of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/brands\/sky-watcher\/\">Sky-Watcher<\/a> is a base that will last you for years.
