This is an HEQ5 Pro mount in very good condition. There are some minor marks/blemishes in the paint - see the photos. However, obviously, these do not affect the operation of the mount, which works just fine. Includes all of the accessories listed below - including a regular Apertura AC adapter, instead of the cigarette lighter/DC adapter.

Sky-Watcher SynScan mounts have been designed for use by novices and experts alike. These mounts provide extremely high precision tracking and have built in autoguider ports. This heavy-duty HEQ5 Pro mount is a smaller version of the sturdy EQ6 Pro mount. It is specially designed for observers who need the steadiness of the EQ6 Pro mount but finds the EQ6 Pro mount too physically demanding.
With the included SynScan Handset controller, even an inexperienced astronomer can master the HEQ5 Pro’s variety of features in a few observing sessions.
