If you are not going to use an extention, you would need 4 (guess) Losmandy weights. The extention is 12" long.

Yep. 4 weights. I have no extensin bar so U use 2 x Losmandy and 2 home-grown of the same weight. It holds an EdgeHD14", 80mm guidescope, rings and ADM bar, cameras etc.
Doesn't struggle although I still haven't been able to solve mystery of elongated stars.
