Twilight I Adjustable Angle Alt-Azimuth Mount - MAZ01-00

The Explore Scientific Twilight I is a light-to-medium-duty alt-azimuth mount and tripod built for small to medium refractors up to 18 pounds with a Vixen-style dovetail bar, including the AR102, ED102mm, and ED80mm. Its powder-coated aluminum head uses worm gears on both axes and tilts to a 45-degree angle for clearance when pointing straight up at the zenith. A stainless steel tripod with a 42-inch stance and locking spreader bar keeps the whole setup stable during observation.
