5.0 out of 5 stars Must get two, February 3, 2011

This review is from: Celestron 94186 Extra 11 Lb Counterweight for CG-5 Mount (Electronics)
If you are using heavier designed eye pieces that weighs a pound or more, or doing astro-photography, and are using a short tube, you will need two of these weights. They screw on very securely. Very easy to adjust. I have always been happy with Celestron products and this one is no different.

5.0 out of 5 stars 11-lb. Counterweight for Celestron CG-5 EQ Mount, February 11, 2010

This review is from: Celestron 94186 Extra 11 Lb Counterweight for CG-5 Mount (Electronics)
This weight does exactly what it's supposed to do. It locks firmly in place with a non-marring, nylon-tipped set screw. The build quality is first rate and the finish is very attractive. The only downside, and it's a very small one, is that this weight is almost too heavy for my small, home-built refractor. If you want to use a Short Tube 80 on your CG-5, this weight will be way too heavy, but it will work great for an 8" SCT.
