With exclusive features found on no other strain wave mounts, the new WAVE series is a serious update and upgrade to Sky-Watcher’s already immensely popular family of astronomy mount platforms.
The Sky-Watcher WAVE-100i is built based on a strain wave or harmonic gearing design. This drive gear design provides a number of benefits including highly precise tracking with minimal backlash for capturing long exposure images, and a compact design with a remarkable payload to weight ratio for the use of various equipment while still being convenient for transportation.

A very prompt and speedy service. My order was processed within the day and the telescope equipment arrived the following day. Would highly recommend Grover’s to other astronomy users wishing to buy astronomical equipment and would definitely use Grover’s again.
