Lost your hand controller, or has your original one stopped working reliably? This replacement hand controller for Sky-Watcher EQ3-2 and Celestron CG4 equatorial mounts is exactly what you need. It lets you fully control your mount again - whether you are observing visually or capturing images of the night sky.
Key features
- Compatible with Sky-Watcher EQ3-2 and Celestron CG4 equatorial mounts
- North/South hemisphere switching (N/S) - works on both the northern and southern hemisphere
- Three selectable slew speeds - 2x, 4x and 8x sidereal rate
- Suitable for precise object centering as well as faster movement across the sky
Power supply - important notice
The controller runs on 6V and is very sensitive to overvoltage. Exceeding the rated supply voltage can permanently damage the unit. We strongly recommend using a regulated power adapter with a precisely controlled 6V output. Standard battery packs are generally safe to use. If you use a mains adapter, always verify its output voltage before connecting.
What is included
This is a replacement hand controller only. The package contains the controller itself - no power cable or other accessories are included. Please verify compatibility with your mount by checking the model names listed above before placing your order.
