New type EQ6 mount
 

 
 

Skywatcher have recently changed the design of the EQ6 mount, so we have a new version of the popular Geoptik EQ6 Puck. Click below to check which mount version you have.

  • Order NEW 30A057N post Sept 2008 version here.


  • Order OLD 30A057F pre Sept 2008 version here.


  • Geoptik USP design improved. The USP now fits directly to a Losmandy G11 mount. It's an improvement on the Losmandy design with dual dovetail grips which grip better than one bar, so you can "tip" the scope into the dovetail which is safer. It also fits your existing EQ6 puck and has a Takahashi 2 hole interface for the Ayo or Tele- Optic Giro 2 mount.
