The last item to go from the move / downsize / clearout is my Skywatcher HEQ5 Pro.
This has been a reliable mount and is in very good working order. It's unmodded and isn't the one with the WiFi dongle. It comes with the tripod and counterweights of course. The power cord has the lighter plug on the end of it, and I've used that with a portable power unit with no problems. It has a dual saddle for both Vixen and Losmandy bars. The mount has some minor cosmetic marks / wear 'n' tear, but none of these affect the performance.
It has a payload of 12 kg but even for observation I've never loaded it anywhere near that. It can track at sidereal, lunar, and solar rates, and tracks well.
The mount, tripod, and weights are all in red Geoptik bags, which are included as part of the sale for ease of transport and to help protect the mount.
The price: $600.00
I'm located in Bathurst in the Central West of NSW. I'm happy to drive to meet up at a mutually convenient time to hand over the mount, as it's too big to post. Happy to meet up in the mid-to-lower Blue Mountains, Orange, etc. if it helps.
Please PM if interested.
