CEM26 EQ Mount with iPolar and 1.75" LiteRoc Tripod

The iOptron CEM26 is a compact, center-balanced German equatorial GoTo mount designed for portable astronomy and astrophotography with a remarkable 2.6 mount-to-payload weight ratio. Weighing just 10 lbs, it supports up to 26 lbs of optical equipment while maintaining excellent tracking accuracy through its precise synchronous belt transmission, stepper motor drive, and patented center-balanced design that positions payload weight directly over the tripod's center of gravity. The package includes an integrated iPolar electronic polar finder for accurate alignment without requiring the pole star to be visible, Go2Nova hand controller with 212,000-object database, Wi-Fi connectivity, and ST-4 autoguiding port, making it ideal for both visual observers and astrophotographers seeking grab-and-go performance.
