The payload weight is defined by Celestron’s engineering/product development department as the load that is carried by the mount’s dovetail clamp.
These are the payload weights of (mostly) current mounts:
Mount | Payload (pounds) |
CGE Pro | 90 |
CGE | 65 |
CGEM DX | 50 |
CGEM | 40 |
Advanced GT (CG-5) | 35 |
NexStar 6/8SE | 12 |
NexStar 4/5SE | 10 |
AllView | 9 |
SkyProdigy | 8 |
NexStar SLT | 8 |
LCM | 5 |
Omni (CG-4) | 20 |

Currently, I'm using Celestron C6 on Nexstar SLT mount. While the mount is able to function properly, vibration is a problem.
