ADM sells an 8 lb and 15 lb stainless steel counterweight for the 1.5 inch shaft. They are not cheap to. Jason |

What is it you are trying to accomplish? Every Ioptron mount I have owned has come complete with enough counter weight to work with the expressed load of the mount. It seems odd that you need to add just 1 pound to the counter weight. Can you explain the situation in more detail? scott |

I use 4 x 10kg for a 20kg 12" newt. I would use 5 if i had them. CEM's need more coutnerweights than GEM.

I have found that having a small weight on the end of the stack allows for much easier fine tuning compared to adjusting the big weights.

Can you explain the situation in more detail? if a mount the Edgehd I am ok but if I try the ed127 I am way off, anyway I use a bag with bricks exactly 11lbs and I was able to balance the mount with the ed127. |

F. Londe:What is it you are trying to accomplish? Every Ioptron mount I have owned has come complete with enough counter weight to work with the expressed load of the mount. It seems odd that you need to add just 1 pound to the counter weight. Can you explain the situation in more detail? Did you receive 2 different sizes of weights with your mount. Ioptron sends 2 sizes so balance can be achieved by placing the weights in various positions on the bar.  weights |

I find my CEM120 counter weights very poor quality. The inner sleeves have rusted marking the counter weight shaft with stains and the paint quality is poor often flaking off. It will be expensive but the software Bisque Paramount weights are much better quality- will fit and they will never rust. |
