Hello all,

I'm after one white HEQ5 5.2kg counterweight.

If anyone has a spare one and wants to sell it please PM me.

Cheers
Doug

Would a Meade 3.25kg weight be of any use ? I have one going spare.

Doug,

I have a Meade LXD55/75 counterweight (10lb or about 4.5kG) spare. It is the white one from a LXD75. Probably not heavy enough for u though :)

I can double check its weight and inner diameter. The Meades have a known issue with the locking screw lever easily breaking off (it's happened on 2 of my three cws)

Cheers,
Darrin...
