That was not mentioned on their site. I am pretty sure that would also apply to the other SWAT models as the PEC is based on an east biased load.

It's also quite heavy at 2.4kgs not including any accessories.

But it is extremely well made and would have the highest load capacity by far at 15kgs! So far I have gotten the best tracking from any mount with it.

That's a good point about the Unitec PEC mode only working in the northern hemisphere. While that's where I'll be taking it, I'd certainly want to continue using it after I come back. The weight for the trip is pretty much at the top end of what I'd consider too. My thanks!
