ZWO 160MM Pier extension for TC40 AM5/AM3

Just a fun video, we will be exploring the ZWO 160mm Pier Extension, a crucial accessory for the TC40 carbon fiber tripod sold with the ZWO AM5/AM3. Join me as I share my first impressions and thoughts on this extension, which I've never needed before due to the shorter length of my previous telescopes.
With the ZWO 160mm Pier Extension, I hope to prevent any potential collisions between my telescope and tripod. We will closely examine its build quality and walk through the assembly process. Taco also makes a surprise appearance in this one.

Neat gizmo!

The PE160 has a recommended weight limit. If one has the PE200, the three Pilars are available as an accessory for $30.
I have both. All this has very good fit and finish.
Also, you should have mentioned that the tightened leg spreader is very important, to asure that the pier extension does NOT pull loose with just the side locking lever on the TC40 tripod!

$US99 compared to $AUD 189 even with the exchange rate we are severely ripped off
