Sky-Watcher Counterweights

Sky-Watcher counterweights let you balance a telescope and camera on a Sky-Watcher mount, which helps tracking and reduces strain on the motors. Each one is made for a specific mount family and shaft.

This collection includes the 22 pound counterweight for the EQ8-R series, counterweights for the EQ6-R, AZ-EQ6 and AZ-EQ5, the Wave counterweight kit for heavier payloads on Wave strain wave mounts, and the Star Adventurer counterweight kit for camera trackers.
