MAX robotic telescope mount makes your voyeurism a little more remote

max00.jpg

Creeping on your neighbors just got a little more intense with the Meade MAX00 Robotic German-Type Equatorial Mount with Tripod. This is a pretty big name for a seemingly simple robotic telescope mount. This mount can hold up to 400 pounds of telescope goodness. Inside of the MAX00 are enough gizmos like RA/Dec drive axes, dovetail system, clutchless hard-loaded worm drive and more for absolute precision and accuracy when spying on the neighbors doing the nasty.

The MAX00 can be controlled via local, network or web. It hooks up to a computer via USB 2.0 ports and I would highly recommend actually owning the Hubble for this device, because at $20,000, there aren't many better telescopes to use a robot mount on. Oh, and we don't condone neighbor spying, you should look at the stars with the assistance of the MAX, really.
