The HEM27 mounts from iOptron offer the excellent characteristics of a "large" equatorial mount and do not require counterweights/counterweight bar thanks to Harmonic Drive technology.
They weigh only 3.7 kg, but can carry a maximum payload of up to 13.5 kg. Thus, the HEM mounts have an excellent weight to payload ratio and also offer great features, such as permanentPeriodic Error Correction, automatic mount shutdown in case of power failure without the need to re-align when back in operation, tracking accuracy (even without guidance), internal cable management, a double prism clamp for rails Vixen and Losmandy and high quality CNC-machined and anodized materials. In addition, they feature proven iOptron Go2Nova 8409 software, integrated wifi and the ultra-quiet drive typical of mounts from iOptron.
