The mount is a Celestron CGEM-DX with the ADM upgrades that I got in 2012. I hypertuned the mount in July '22 and the improvement in performance was worth the effort and expense. As long as the motors hold up, I'll keep using it. Now that I know how to service the mount I'll be more inclined to perform the service on a routine basis.

I like this rendition. I’ll be going after this string again next year.

The Summer Milky Way rising as steam from the "teapot" in Sagittarius over a lake in Northern Ontario. The stars are all trailed due to the 2 minute exposure. The chairs on the dock were briefly illuminated using a red flashlight.

I pretty much did the same to the CGEM-DX by replacing the stock saddle with the ADM dual saddle. Nice to have the ability to change between mounting plates if the need arises. I mostly use the D-style plates anyway, but there have been a few times when it's been very handy to have around.
