Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Celestron 94186 Extra 11 Lb Counterweight for CG-5 Mount
Customer Review: 11-lb. Counterweight for Celestron CG-5 EQ Mount
Summary: 5 Stars
This weight does exactly what it's supposed to do. It locks firmly in place with a non-marring, nylon-tipped set screw. The build quality is first rate and the finish is very attractive. The only downside, and it's a very small one, is that this weight is almost too heavy for my small, home-built refractor. If you want to use a Short Tube 80 on your CG-5, this weight will be way too heavy, but it will work great for an 8" SCT.
Description of Celestron 94186 Extra 11 Lb Counterweight for CG-5 Mount
Using accessories such as cameras, Lens Shades, Tele-Extenders and the 2" Diagonal will affect the balance of your Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope. Counterweights restore proper balance, increasing ease in handling and improved tracking accuracy.You don't need perfect balance to operate your telescope. In fact, it's not always possible to achieve perfect balance with fixed-position weights. All you need to do is reduce, or eliminate, swing when R.A. and DEC locks are released. Celestron counterweights help you achieve the desired balance and stability with ease.Telescope Accessories
