Filter wheel's

[sinbad40]

I am looking at moving from a filter draw 2” filters to a wheel.  I have been looking at the following in my price range.

ZWO 5 x 2” USB

Starlight Xpress USB 5 x 2”

Pegasus Indigo 7 x 2”

 

Reading some of the reviews, a couple seem to point out that they don’t always align the filter fully, or even have some light leeks.

So just after any info on them from people who have experience of using one.

 

Thanks

I've got a Pegasus Indigo FW and it is very good. It aligns the filters perfectly. No light leaks on mine.

I have used the 8 position ZWO filter wheel for a few years without any issues. No possibility of light leakage as it is all screw in fittings. The 2" is just a larger version so I assume the performance would be similar. There is always the possibility of getting a 'duff' one I guess, but I think it should be obvious within the 2 year warranty period.
