Cem60EC
+1 thumbs up for the CEM60 EC. A very solid mount, that I cannot fault on the ioptron TriPier.
You will want it on a very solid pier for good tracking and dampening.
Good fit and finish. The heated hand controller is a nice touch. 12v and USB in the saddle plate is great for your cameras and guiders etc. The only short coming is the need to screw off the polar scope cover to access the power input for the illuminated polar scope.
No biggie really, and the saddle plate USB ports are unpowered, however I have read that other users on CloudyNights have modded and soldered powered USB connectors in their place as an after market modification.
