The Sky-Watcher AZ-EQ6 Pro bundle contains the mount with tripod, high quality Geoptik pack-in bag to protect the mount while travelling and our fully Australian-certified 12V 5A power supply.

The Sky-Watcher AZ-EQ6 Pro Go-To is designed for the professional astrophotographer who wants a solid and reliable mount with a payload of up to 20kg. It combines the advantages of the equatorial mount with the simplicity of the alt-azimuth system.

In fact, the AZ-EQ6 is a hybrid mount usable in both these configurations. The equatorial mode is ideal for astrophotography while the alt-azimuth configuration is more practical for observation as polar alignment is not required. 

 

 

The Geoptik "pack in bag" for the SkyWatcher and Saxon AZ-EQ6 offers an easy and effective solution to transport your mount.

The bag fits the original packaging foam of your AZ-EQ6 mount. All you need to do is remove the original packaging foam from the mount cardboard box and fit it in the Geoptik pack in bag.

 

 

Testar's 12V DC 5A power supply has a screw lockable output plug and IEC AC input cable for the Saxon Az-Eq6Skywatcher AZ-EQ5, AZ-EQ6, EQ8-R, EQ8-Rh, EQ6-R Pro and the new NEQ6 mount. Fully Australian certified - unlike many generic power supplies that come with overseas products, this is fully compliant with all safety certifications!
