Lynx Astro Premium Handset Cable for Sky-Watcher (see description for models)

Description

Lynx Astro Premium Handset Cable for Sky-Watcher EQ5 PRO, HEQ5 PRO & Syntrek, AZ EQ5-GT, EQ6-R PRO, AZ EQ6-GT and EQ8 Mounts.

Round profile PUR sheathed so more flexible and less prone to twisting or snagging.

Longer and more ‘springy’ than standard cables so less likely to pull the handset out of your hand!

The cable length is rated at 1m to over 7m when fully extended but we think 2-3m is a sensible maximum. Significantly more than standard handset cables!

User comments

“I purchased this for my Skywatcher EQ6-R mount with SynScan hand held controller. It is a nice upgrade (longer and more flexible) compared with the Skywatcher cable that originally came with the mount. I can now rest the SynScan controller on my knee while looking down the eyepiece of my telescope whereas when I tried to do that with the original cable the controller would be pulled away from me…” – Graham

“Excellent cable does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Makes it much easier to view the screen whilst star aligning, while not pulling the handset or disturbing the mount” – Peter

“…Exceptional quality cable, well worth the price.” – Randell

“Has a quality feel about it and has a protective cover surrounding the plastic clip. The real benefit is the extra length of cable. This makes life so much easier and hassle free around the mount when in operation. It used to be a regular occurrence to either jolt the scope or have the cable snag around the counterweight shaft…. all in the dark and at the most awkward of bodily angles to fix. This sorts that problem out.” – Sean

“I found the extra length and solid connections made this an excellent improvement.” – Steve
