iEXOS-100-02 PMC-Eight Equatorial Tracker System with Wifi and Bluetooth

The order arrived in the allotted time and the UPS courier was professional, the transport box was absolutely not damaged.A little disappointed with the product, it was probably inspected before shipping because the transparent tape stickers were applied again but this is not the worst. Inside the optical path used for polar alignment there is a lot of rust, and rust is present in small quantities on some points of the equatorial head externally.The S / N of the product seems quite small and I doubt that it has received a refurbished or used product. I like the design of this equatorial mount, it is intelligent and practical in use.I still have to check the functionality of the product that I will do shortly. I would have expected higher overall quality and product quality control by Explorer Scientific that all of us astronomers know for its seriousness and quality of the products.I may have been unlucky but I think it is correct to write an honest and truthful review.

I've only had limited opportunities to use it so far (too many cloudy nights) but the small amount I have been able to use it is seems a very capable mount given its very affordable price.

The iexos is great so far. Obivously when you buy a new piece of equipment its gonna be cloudy for the whole week but I’ve managed to get it outside once or twice. It came very quick and well packaged. It was super easy to set up everything worked as it should right out of the box. I did run into a slight problem after installing the drivers from the explore scientific website though. After you install them and open NINA it might be set to the wrong mount. It’s a very easy fix though, just select the gear button when connecting and make sure the drop down is set to iexos not anything else, just took me a second to figure out why my stars had trails. the only other complaint is that it doesn’t come with an azimuth adjuster. This isnt too big a problem because you can loosen the screw on the bottom of the tripod and turn the mount by hand. With three point polar alignment I got it down to below an arc minute without the az adjuster. 10/10 though and its cheaper than a tracker.
