TWILIGHT SERIES MOUNTS
TWILIGHT I MOUNT
THE TWILIGHT SERIES MOUNTS
It takes more than high-end optics to truly connect with the universe. Our versatile
and durable Twilight Series mounts are designed to give your telescopes the stable
foundations they need to gracefully navigate the sky.
The Twilight I and Twilight II are both alt-azimuth mounts that can smoothly move
your telescope up, down and side-to-side and then firmly lock it into position to avoid
frustrating slippage.
Perfect for small to mid-size telescopes, the Twilight I will support up to 18 pounds
and features slow-motion controls on both axes that facilitate fine adjustments and easy
object tracking. It also has an adjustable fork arm that will allow you to angle the head
mount enough for some telescopes to point at the zenith.
Ideally suited for star parties and outreach, the Twilight II mount can accommodate two
telescopes at once and hold up to 60 pounds. The movement of the heavy-duty mount is
controlled by large chrome dials that are simple to manipulate even when you have on
gloves. It also comes with an 8-inch pier extension to accommodate larger telescopes
and provide a more comfortable viewing experience.
Both the Twilight I and II mounts come with chrome-plated steel tripods that offer a
wide footprint and adjustable leg heights. To minimize vibrations, the legs are locked in
place by a stabilizing plate that doubles as a convenient accessory tray.
This set-up manual with guide you through the basic assembly process for both Twilight
mounts so that you can be out in the field and under the stars in no time.
