Sky-Watcher Wave 100i Strainwave Mount
Â
Bringing Balance to the Force
The Sky-Watcher 100i Strainwave Mount is particularly suitable for serious astronomers and astrophotographers who require precise control over their telescopeâs movements but enjoy a small form factor.
Sky-Watcher Ìs Wave mounts feature strainwave gearing that provides a lot of power in a little package. The strainwave configuration offers several advantages over traditional mount designs including low to zero backlash and high torque for handling larger OTAs.
Weighing only 9.5 pounds and carrying a 22-pound-per-saddle payload (33lb. in EQ mode with the optional counterweight kit), the Wave 100i is the perfect grab-and-go mount that can moonlight as a dual saddle astronomy outreach dynamo or an equatorial imaging mount. Featuring a whisper-quiet slew speed of 10 degrees per second, the Sky-Watcher 100i can even track satellites and space stations.

Dual Saddles: For solar imagers, eclipse chasers, and outreach enthusiasts the smaller Wave 100i comes standard with a secondary saddle that mounts over the counterweight port allowing users to mount up to 22 lbs. of equipment on each saddle in Alt-Az mode.
Fast Slewing: Track satellites and space stations with the Waveâs swift slew rate of 7.5 degrees per second and the downloadable Satellite Tracker Application for Windows PC found on Sky-Watcherâs International Support website.
Key Features
Strainwave Drive Technology: The Wave mount was built around advanced strain wave drive technology which delivers exceptionally smooth and precise tracking without the need of bulky counterweights, tripods, and mount heads. This approach allows users to capture stunning images of celestial objects on a more streamlined platform without sacrificing performance.
Robust Payload Capacity: Whether youâre mounting a small wide field refractor, a stocky Mak-Cassegrain, a massive astrograph, or a long, glass-heavy triplet, the Wave's adaptive payload capacity and slew of add-ons and accessories ensures compatibility with a wide range of optical tubes and tripods. This adaptability provides a stable platform for an entirely open ecosystem tailor-made by the user with an intuitive interface and a fit and finish that inspires confidence.
Options, Add Ons, and Accessories: Choose ĂĄ la carte-style to suit your needs be it the stainless-steel counterweight kit, pier adapter, carbon fiber or steel tripod, mount head only, or fully decked out kits with optical tubes included. The Wave has got you covered.
Seamless Connectivity: The Wave mount easily integrates with Sky-Watcher's SynScan hand controller or SynScan app allowing users to control their telescopes by hand or wirelessly via smartphone or tablet, as well as through third-party control platforms (ASIAir, Eagle, StellarMate, etc.) enabling access to advanced features like plate solving and automated imaging runs.
