You then long-press the power button and step back. The built-in GPS calculates the date, time, and location, as well as the sun\u2019s altitude and azimuth. The mount levels the telescope, pauses, then slews to the right altitude. Then its photodiode solar sensor (a small camera) hunts for the solar disc and locks on. In practice, the system gets impressively close to that ideal \u2014 but with some small caveats.<\/p><figure class=\"van-image-figure  inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2133px;\"><p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.26%;\"><img id=\"kbK52oDH5yS9G925uFLMeh\" name=\"14\" alt=\"A deep orange image of the sun taken with the Sky-Watcher Heliostar 76mm, Sky-Watcher SolarQuest solar telescope mount and a ZWO ASI174mm mono astronomy camera.\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/kbK52oDH5yS9G925uFLMeh.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"2133\" height=\"1200\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"inline\"><\/p><\/div><\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"caption-text\">A colorized image of the sun taken with a ZWO planetary camera on an H-Alpha telescope mounted on the SolarQuest. <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Jamie Carter)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure><p>The sun needs to be in a clear sky, but it doesn\u2019t have to be high. We reviewed the SolarQuest during a summer heatwave, when getting up very early was the only sensible way to observe the sun. Having got up early to take advantage of the cool morning air before the sun rose too high, we feared the SolarQuest would fail to find such a low sun. Luckily, there were no such issues, with SolarQuest taking just under 60 seconds to be perfectly aligned with the sun.<\/p><figure class=\"van-image-figure  inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2133px;\"><p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.26%;\"><img id=\"bA2d4VPNnzzNUknLtKfGch\" name=\"10\" alt=\"A close-up of part of the Sky-Watcher SolarQuest solar telescope mount.\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/bA2d4VPNnzzNUknLtKfGch.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"2133\" height=\"1200\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"inline\"><\/p><\/div><\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"caption-text\">The solar sensor uses four photodiodes to lock onto the sun. <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Jamie Carter)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure><p>For visual observing, that\u2019s transformative. Instead of spending the first part of a session aligning, shadow-aiming and nudging a scope into position, you can be looking at the sun within minutes. However, we did have to use the joypad on the SolarQuest to center the sun. Happily, the controls are very sensitive and move slowly, so we were able to have a perfect view of the sun in under two minutes from pressing the power-on button. That\u2019s impressive. <\/p><h3 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-sky-watcher-solarquest-mount-head-functionality\"><span>Sky-Watcher SolarQuest mount head: Functionality<\/span><\/h3><figure class=\"van-image-figure  inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2133px;\"><p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.26%;\"><img id=\"dCobHxVp8FcDN3JZ5X2nKh\" name=\"3\" alt=\"A close-up of the Sky-Watcher SolarQuest solar telescope mount with the Sky-Watcher Heliostar 76mm solar telescope attached.\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/dCobHxVp8FcDN3JZ5X2nKh.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"2133\" height=\"1200\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"inline\"><\/p><\/div><\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"caption-text\">Built-in GPS calculates the sun\u2019s position automatically. <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Jamie Carter)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure><ul><li><strong>Accurately tracks the sun<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>8x AA batteries are old-fashioned<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Payload is a limiting factor<\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p>Tracking accuracy is very good, with a tiny adjustment on the joypad required perhaps every few hours. Since it largely follows the sun\u2019s path through the sky, it should be suitable for a total or deep partial solar eclipse, when a crescent sun could confuse the sensor (to be sure, you could cover the sensor during totality so it doesn\u2019t hunt for the sun and try to realign during an eclipsed crescent sun). <\/p><p>However accurate it is, this is an alt-az mount. It can track the sun well but it cannot remove field rotation during much longer imaging sessions. For visual use and almost all solar use \u2014 including casual video capture \u2014 that is not a major issue. However, for long-duration solar imaging and creating time-lapses, it\u2019s a limitation to keep in mind.<\/p><figure class=\"van-image-figure  inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2133px;\"><p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.26%;\"><img id=\"hHwuTw6dkfqhZynVbEgEnh\" name=\"7\" alt=\"A hand holding the a battery compartment with batteries inside, next to the Sky-Watcher SolarQuest solar telescope mount.\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/hHwuTw6dkfqhZynVbEgEnh.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"2133\" height=\"1200\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"inline\"><\/p><\/div><\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"caption-text\">The battery compartment takes eight AA batteries, though external power is available.  <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Jamie Carter)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure><p>One practical complaint is the battery compartment. Pop open the door (which detaches and becomes easily lost) and inside is a small plastic cradle that takes eight AA batteries. As if needing to take a trip to a store before being able to use the SolarQuest wasn\u2019t annoying enough, it occurred to me that if I was going to an eclipse, I would need to travel with at least eight more AA batteries as spares \u2014 and possibly another 16x for true peace of mind. Not a pleasant prospect. Should any gadget like this be AA battery-powered in the age of Lithium-ion and USB-C? A resounding no. The box includes a 12V DC connection but there\u2019s no cable.
