Strainwave mounts are particularly suitable for serious astrophotographers who require precise control, and for these demanding applications Sky-Watcher has developed the Wave 150i Strainwave Mount! This Wave mount features strainwave gearing that provides a lot of power in a little package. The strainwave configuration offers several advantages over traditional mount designs including low-to-zero backlash and high torque for handling larger OTAs. With cable management, large payload capacity, and a small footprint, the Wave 150i is the ultimate portable imaging mount.
