Description
Revolutionizing a classic design, iOptron® introduces the GEM45, the next generation of German equatorial mounts. Crafted with a sleek CNC body, the GEM45 stands as a pinnacle of quality, marrying aesthetics with performance.
Drawing from the expertise honed in developing the CEM series, iOptron has streamlined the GEM45, achieving an astonishing 2.8 payload to mount weight ratio. Weighing a mere 15.8 lbs, this compact mount seamlessly executes precise GOTO commands and tracks with up to 45 lbs of equipment onboard.
Featuring an integrated electronic polar scope (iPolar), polar alignment becomes effortless, even when celestial landmarks are obscured. Large levers on the quick-lock drive engagement system facilitate smooth gear engagement, even with gloved hands. With an advanced internal cable management system, cable snags become a thing of the past.
Introducing the patent-pending Universal Self-Centering Saddle (USCS), the GEM45 accommodates both Losmandy and Vixen style dovetail plates. Employing reliable stepper motor drive systems with low power consumption, the GEM45 ensures dependable performance.
Boasting a vast 212,000+ object library with star identification, GPS, and optional Wi-Fi compatibility (requires iStarFi adapter), the GEM45 offers unparalleled functionality.
Complementing the GEM45 is the newly developed iOptron LiteRoc tripod, meticulously engineered to be lightweight yet robust. Featuring sturdier extending legs and enhanced locking mechanisms, the LiteRoc tripod provides stability without sacrificing portability.
