The Testar Pier 3000 is engineered in-house by us based on the original design by 10 Micron using FEM analysis to ensure structural superiority compared to other piers on the market. The thick steel construction, dip galvanization and powder coating make it virtually indestructible, with a base thickness of 25mm and tube thickness of 9.3mm. The structural fins on the base are engineered to reduce low frequency vibration and avoid resonance effects caused by wind.

The switching power supply is a very high quality device with full Australian certification. It accepts 110 to 240V AC input, with the output ensuring the proper 24V, 6A (120W) power supply to the GM3000.

The Losmandy dovetail clamping plate 3″ XL offers a length of 350mm and three security locking knobs, offering a very high level of stability and safety, especially for heavier and longer optical configurations. Also included is the flange adapter for attaching it to the mount.

The package includes three 20kg counterweights to allow precise balancing of most imaging systems. Machined from stainless steel, 10 Micron counterweights are incredibly resistant to harsh environmental conditions.

The Astromi.ch MGBox V2 is a small, lightweight GPS weather station that provides positional information, barometric pressure, temperature, humidity and dew point information with superb accuracy.
