Sky-Watcher Wave mount and ASI Air Connection:
HIGH TORQUE. HIGH PRECISION. HIGH PORTABILITY.
Taking advantage of the strain wave design with its high torque and compact construction, these mounts deliver high precision and power in an affordable and portable package. With exclusive features found on no other strain wave mounts, the Wave series is a serious update and upgrade to Sky-Watcher’s already immensely popular family of astronomy mount platforms.
Boasting 22 and 33 pounds of payload capacity respectively (33 and 55 pounds with optional counterweight kits), the Wave 100i and 150i are incredibly compact and lightweight (9.5 and 12.8 pounds) and stow in durable carry cases with dense, machine-cut foam perfectly suited for travel. Sky-Watcher’s Wave mounts also feature both EQ and AZ tracking modes with RA and Dec home positions, D/V hybrid saddles, 0–90-degree latitude range, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capability, RA power-off braking, 12v 2a power (not included), and a red backlit latitude display and bubble level to make your setup routine that much easier.
Exclusive Features
Cable Management: Designed for the serious astro-imager, the Wave 150i mount features through-mount cabling and a powered hub built into the saddle with ports for autoguiding, Dec USB, and 2 Dec outputs. The RA hub sits at the back of the mount and never moves, keeping all your cabling neat, organized, and safe from snags.
OTA Balancing: Unique to the strain wave mounts currently on the market, Sky-Watcher’s larger Wave 150i also features the ability to balance the OTA on the RA and Dec axes adding to the overall stability, security, and performance of the system.
Fast Slewing: Track satellites and space stations with the Wave’s swift slew rate of 7.5 degrees per second and the downloadable Satellite Tracker Application for Windows PC found on Sky-Watcher’s International Support website.
Key Features
Strainwave Drive Technology: The Wave mount was built around advanced strain wave drive technology which delivers exceptionally smooth and precise tracking without the need of bulky counterweights, tripods, and mount heads. This approach allows users to capture stunning images of celestial objects on a more streamlined platform without sacrificing performance.
Robust Payload Capacity: Whether you’re mounting a small wide field refractor, a stocky Mak-Cassegrain, a massive astrograph, or a long, glass-heavy triplet, the Wave's adaptive payload capacity and slew of add-ons and accessories ensures compatibility with a wide range of optical tubes and tripods. This adaptability provides a stable platform for an entirely open ecosystem tailor-made by the user with an intuitive interface and a fit and finish that inspires confidence.
Seamless Connectivity: The Wave mount easily integrates with Sky-Watcher's SynScan hand controller or SynScan app allowing users to control their telescopes by hand or wirelessly via smartphone or tablet, as well as through third-party control platforms (ASIAir, Eagle, StellarMate, etc.) enabling access to advanced features like plate solving and automated imaging runs.
Options, Add Ons, and Accessories: Choose á la carte-style to suit your needs be it the stainless-steel counterweight kit, pier adapter, carbon fiber or steel tripod, mount head only, or fully decked out kits with optical tubes included. The Wave has got you covered.
Sky-Watcher was launched in 1999 featuring a modest line of Newtonian and refractor optical tubes, with distribution in Europe and Asia. In 2000, Sky-Watcher released their first series of Dobsonian telescopes, and two years later answered the rising popularity of digital SLRs with their first version of the famed German Equatorial Mount, the EQ6. Today, with a full product line that includes Dobsonians, APO refractors, EQ mounts, and photography products, Sky-Watcher has grown into the most popular telescope brand worldwide.
iOptron iPolar Electronics Polarscope for SkyGuider Pro
Introducing iOptron iPolarTM - a high precision, easy to use electronics polarscope (e-PS).
What makes iPolar unique? 1. Can be easily installed inside the RA shaft on all iOptron equatorial mounts (except SmartEQ Pro). 2. Can be used on any mounts with adapters either internally or externally. 3. USB plug and play (no driver needed) 4. Works globally, no need to set northern and southern hemisphere. 5. No visible Polaris (north) or Sigma Octantis (south) necessary. 6. No need to rotate the mount during polar align.
iPolar is a smart electronic polarscope for everyone.
Quality optics and reliable body made of metal. This magnifier is a great assistant for people with imperfect eyesight. It allows for reading small font text, examining tiny details on photographs, drafts, and maps. A magnifier delivers a sharp and clear image across the entire field of view. It comes in useful in any house.
Highlight of the new Antlia LRGB V PRO 36mm, Unmounted
Improved contrast, star hypertrophy, and halo minimization compared with the previous Antlia LRGB V-series
Premium coating technology and finely polished substrate Our quality selection processes are optimized to ensure highly homogeneous glass-substrates. Our application of advanced optical coating technology and double-sided precision polishing achieves both consistent parfocal and optical performance across all filters.
Maximized colour balance and contrast for each of the three RGB channels and excellent S/N performance Dozens of coating layers are deposited on both sides of the glass substrate that enables LRGB-V Pro filters to achieve a high SNR. The Anti reflection coatings and carefully designed spectral gaps minimize unwanted light scatter and maximize useful signal data for each filter channel.
Tighter star profiles and halo reduction The cut-off rate of LRGB-V Pro series set is designed in high level to minimize halos around brighter stars and reduce star bloat. Our careful design of the blue channel transmission characteristics targets the problem of blue star bloating.
Uses three-element objective lens with two ED elements for superb color correction and image quality
Configures as a finder/telescope/guide scope with a focal length of 275mm and focal ratio of f/5.5
Includes four-element 0.84x focal reducer to configure as a seven-element f/4.6 apo telescope with focal length of 230mm for wide-field astronomical imaging
Includes tube mounting rings, Vixen-style dovetail, and carrying handle with guidescope slot for a wide range of mounting configurations
ASIAIR PLUS is a smart WiFi device. It is equipped with a lightweight power management module, ample USB interfaces, and multiple dovetail mounting methods. With the rich features of the ASIAIR App, the whole procedure from device integration to image capture runs particularly smooth.
ASIAIR PLUS is the third generation of ZWO that has been continuously improved and newly designed since the first generation of ASIAIR was released in July 2018.
This is a fantastic product for EAA. With the variable weather here in Thailand, I am still able to get out under the stars for even a few minutes and get some great pictures, particularly of nebula and galaxies. I highly recommend the Seestar S50 for beginners and advanced astronomers (or wannabees).
