PocketCW2 

The new pocketCW2 will initially be launched with all the functions included in its predecessor, the pocketCW.

From then on, we will start incorporating the new version’s improvements in the shape of software updates. It goes without saying that the pocketCW2 will include all the necessary components to be able to integrate the new characteristics, and the software updates will be free. And of course, full PC connectivity will be available from the very beginning (ASCOM driver, Windows software, etc).

Buying the pocketCW2 now will enable you to:

  • save a considerable amount of money
  • participate in a vote to choose which improvements come out first
  • enjoy the new features as they come out
