BRESSER Twilight I telescope mount with tripod

The  Twilight I  is a light-to-medium-duty  alt-azimuth mount with tripod designed to quickly and easily accept small to medium sized refractors, such as the AR102 + AR127s or ED102mm + ED127, and of course, the ED80mm. Lightweight, fast Newtonians will also match up nicely with the  BRESSER Twilight I mount . As long as your telescope does  not exceed 18 pounds  and has a  Vixen-Style Universal Dovetail bar  for mounting the telescope to the mount head, you are good to go. 

The  Twilight I alt-azimuth mount head  is made of  powder-coated aluminum  and there are  worm gears  on both axes. The  adjustable angle head  can be tilted forward or back at a  45° angle  to allow more clearance for your telescope so you can point it straight up for viewing at the zenith. The Allen hex wrench for doing the mount head adjustment can be safely stored at the  integrated magnetic holder .  

Slow-motion control cables  are attached on the vertical and horizontal axes, and are easy to turn during the night, even with gloves on, due to the over-sized knurled knobs that are attached to the end of each cable. They can be attached to either side of each axis to accommodate right or left-handed users, or different types of telescopes (e.g. refractors vs. Newtonian reflectors) for ease of adjustment. 

The  stainless steel tripod  that comes standard with the  Twilight I mount  has  adjustable legs  and a  wide foot print of 42 inches , which makes the tripod more stable. A spreader bar locks against the inside of the legs to secure the tripod even further, and keep vibrations to a minimum.
