Having used manual and motorised EQ mounts for many many many years, the HEQ5 didn't help me as much as it would a newbie. I, along
with quite a few others, from what I see on IIS, have had a number of
frustrating and expensive electronic faults and failures. I never know
on any given night whether it is going to work properly or not. The longest fault free run I have had is about 6 weeks. I've seemingly got
a lemon, and think that in my case I'd be better off with a simple
motorised mount. If HEQ5s are usually more reliable, then I would
probably just about plump for having one.
