Now I use the Televue Genesis as travel scope, excellent performance, but heavy mount + tripod to set up.
I found this Skywatcher mini tabletop Dobson for $150 which is 13cm (which theoretically should match a 10cm Apo) and weighs only 7kg thus a lot less than the 14kg of Genesis + SP mount.
But the low price seems that the quality is poor. Does somebody have experience with this (or a similar) scope ?
