Hiya, I got the Orion Optics Paragon mount and it has an adjustable set of legs and has a counterweight at the end but it's not visible on the photo but it's a single weight to balance things, the only problem is when I want to try and lay back on my reclining chair I can't really use them on the mount as such but it's not a huge problem as I normally have to adjust the legs and the height through a handle which I have to turn and place the mount with the binoculars in to a suitable position up against the side of the reclining chair and then have to loosen all of the screws and bring the binoculars forward while I lay back on the chair which can be a little uncomfortable but the mount normally is leaning forwards when I am looking at an object like for instance comet jacques in cassiopeia which is quite high up so sometimes the mount ends up against the side chair which means the mount sometimes has to tilt towards me and then one of the legs of the mounts ends up lifting from the group. Hope I have explained it clearly though and also have my Skywatcher Powertank 7AH to the side with a small hairdryer for any dew that may get on the lenses on the Helios Apollo 15x70s HD. Thinking of also getting the Helios Apollo HD 20X110 or the Helios Apollo HD 28X110 

The Helios Apollo 15X70 HD Binoculars are the best binoculars in the world, got a pair and there more there amazing!!!

Helios Apollo 15x70 HD, Best binocualrs you can get, Breathtaking views of the heavens!

I was thinking of going for the Helios Quantum 25x100 Binoculars or the Helios Apollo 15x70mm and which are the better out of the 2, Also I have an Orion Optics Deluxe Alt Azimuth Mount for the Binoculars but I will need a L-Bracket for them. Are these binoculars generally good for the ISS and satellite spotting and Asteroid Spotting as well as some deep sky. Thanks

I am thinking of getting the Helios 15x70mm Apollo Binoculars and will see if I can go for the 25x100 ones and would like to ask are these ideal for Satellite and Asteroid hunting and also is there a lot of difference between the Helios ones and the Celestron Skymaster 15x70mm ones. Thanks

I am pleased to hear you got your tripod m8 and wish you all the best and I am going to be ordering some goods soon from them and lets all hope for clear skies.

@Grunthos, Sorry to hear about your tripod mate but FLO will replace it and wish you all the best and FLO as I say are a gr8 company and excellent service.

FIRST LIGHT OPTICS:hello2: There Awesome and have dealt with them for a few years now and top class people like Martin and Steve but I have dealt with Martin mainly and does not live to far away from me in Kingskerswell in Devon and who works there and gives you a quality first class service and there very happy to help and always answers your questions in emails. Everyone on the planet should deal with FIRST LIGHT OPTICS or should I say FIRST CLASS OPTICS:icon_salut:. Ordered my Skywatcher 127 Mak and CG-5 GT Mount from them among other items and delivery is super quick. High standards and a great company and service. :bs:

Does that Berleback adaptor fit on to the SkyTee-2 and would I be able to fit both on any camera tripod. I have a 127 Mak and would that be OK to fit and will this set up be able to cope with the weight of a 127 Mak OTA!

I agree about FLO there service is excellent and I am amazed how quickly they get back you via emails as well and very helpful and normally I order stuff through Martin. This is one company that has very high standards!

I think my skywatcher 7ah power tank is having issues as it seems to be taking longer to charge it and at the moment its still charging with the RED charging light on but also the GREEN fully charged light seem to be coming on and even though its not bright green now it seem to be getting brighter.

What is the name of the adaptor that fits on top of the M10 as I gonna order the tripod and the SkyTee-2 mount and what else would I need as I wanna house a Skywatcher 127 Mak on this and later on a Skywatcher small shorttube refractor. What is the name of the supplier that stocks the adaptor. Many Thanks
