I had problems with Lodestars. Interference was bad and couldn't do an autodark unless you use Maxim. That meant the software often confused noise for the guide stars and I wold get massive corrections and wreck the image run.
I know they are popular but I would be sceptical.
The STi has been very reliable. I would get another STi.I have had 2 Stis and both were good. They do autodarks which is the key.
Far superior to a Lodestar which only has a bit more sensitivity and perhaps they are cheaper going for them.
