Description
The TeSeek JUWEI-14 Harmonic Equatorial Mount introduces precision tracking and advanced engineering to the world of portable astronomy. Compact yet capable, it’s built around a harmonic drive system — the same technology found in high-end astrophotography mounts — delivering exceptionally smooth and backlash-free motion.
Despite its lightweight design of only 3.35 kg, the JUWEI-14 supports telescopes and imaging setups of up to 8 kg without counterweights, making it ideal for field observations and mobile astrophotography rigs. Whether you’re exploring the Milky Way under dark skies or capturing deep-sky targets from your backyard, this mount offers dependable tracking and flexibility.
The mount can operate in both equatorial and theodolite modes, adapting easily to visual observation or imaging needs. It combines a harmonic reducer and synchronous belt drive for accurate motion control, while its OnStep-compatible system opens the door to full integration with software such as ASIAIR, NINA, and other planetarium apps.
For control, the JUWEI-14 offers multiple options: a hand controller, joystick, or wireless connection via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, giving you real-time access to star maps and telescope movement. The built-in polar alignment laser and bubble level simplify setup, while smooth latitude (10°–90°) and azimuth (±10°) adjustments ensure precision alignment.
Engineered with durability in mind, the mount’s aluminum structure and precision machining deliver solid stability for long exposures. Powered by a standard 12V DC input, it’s ready for both home observatories and on-the-go setups.
The JUWEI-14 has already attracted attention from the astrophotography community for offering performance that rivals much more expensive mounts. With its silent operation, compact design, and advanced drive technology, it’s an excellent choice for anyone seeking an affordable entry point into harmonic drive mounts — without compromise in quality or precision.
