SkyTracker Pro Portable Single-axis Equatorial Mount High Precision Automatic Tracking Astronomical Accessory for iOptron

SkyTracker Pro Portable Single-axis Equatorial Mount High Precision Automatic Tracking Astronomical Accessory for iOptron

Description:
- The SkyTracker Pro ultra portable single axis equatorial tracker is a precision tracker developed specifically for astronomical photography.
- It has smaller size, better portability (the main body only weighs 685g, including the battery weight), higher accuracy, maximum effective load capacity of 3kg, built-in rechargeable lithium battery, long battery life (over 20 hours).
- After optimization design, the polar telescope has stronger applicability (reduced interference probability). The independent fine-tuning bottom of the split body makes the seat design more flexible to use. Suitable for long-term exposure shooting locations with various DSLR cameras, catching landscapes such as starry sky, Milky Way starry sky, Milky Way wide area deep space, etc.
- Note: When shooting wide area starry sky, it is best to add L-PRO built-in filters (not included), and UHC filters (not included) can also be added for urban light pollution. Be careful to avoid potential interference between the camera and the polar mirror during use.

Precaution:
- The operating temperature (discharge) of a rechargeable lithium battery is -20 ~ 40℃, but it should be kept above 0℃ during charging, otherwise it will damage the lithium battery and cannot be repaired. So do not charge the Sky Tracker Pro below 0℃. (including not inserting an external power bank below 0℃)
- The load of the equatorial instrument should be balanced as much as possible. When the effective load is greater than 1.2kg, a balance kit accessory must be used.
