Astro-Physics 600EGTO
This is an excelent mount that's faithfully carried my 155EDFS for 4 1/2 years. The servos have a precision sound and I go a weekend of slews on one charge of my deep cycle battery. The servos and all electronics are fully inclosed in the housing making this design very clean and uncluttered by cables. I have a 'visual' setup and astro-photographers use a 900 or 1200 under the 155. I plan on making the move to a 900GTO when my number comes up, which is no reflection on the quality of this mount
