Hello Eshan,
great post and congratulations for the perseverance. I've got the same mount and am using it with a Stellarvue 102 on top, but I've been drooling over an Edge HD8" for months, now. Seeing that you were able to mount it on your CEM25P is a big encouragement, but the question is: considering the Max payload of 27 pounds and the OTA weighing 13-14 pounds itself (it still sounds promising as far as holding it properly even for astrophotography), do you recommend going for it or one should rather upgrade to a bigger mount? I'd be using it for astrophotography but at f/7 f=1,400mm rather than f/10 f=2,000mm...
Thank you beforehand for your answers and congratulations on your Astrobin page, really good pictures!
Andrew
