Celestron CGE Pro Equatorial Telescope Mount

In addition to being fully computerized with a database of over 40,000 celestial objects, the Celestron CGE Pro German Equatorial mount has been completely redesign to offer numerous design advantages for the Astrophotographer: Increased Payload Capacity: makes the CGE Pro able to hold a 14 SCT telescope more securely as well as larger optical tubes up to a maximum payload of 90lbs. All-Star Polar Alignment: Choose any bright alignment star for a software assisted alignment of the mounts polar axis that will have you ready for imaging even if you can't see the North Star. No-Tool polar alignment: Larger hand knobs for both Altitude and Azimuth adjustments. Meridian Tracking: Extended tracking pass the Meridian of up to 20 degrees of uninterrupted imaging through the best part of the sky. Faster slew speed: Improved gearing and motors provide faster slew speeds than ever before with a maximum slew rate of over 5 degrees per second. Power Management: Redesigned electronics deliver constant regulated power to the motors making them capable of driving the telescope even when not perfectly balanced. This allows the CGE Pro to have the payload capacity of that of much larger (and expensive) mounts without sacrificing smooth tracking motion and pointing accuracy across the entire sky. Accuracy: The hallmark of any telescope mount is its ability to find, center and track celestial objects with the highest degree of accuracy.
