Can you provide any details on it? I was about to order the D-12 when I saw the note about the new D-16 but I know nothing about it.
We have updated Rotator D12 based on suggestions and requests from customers and forum members. The new Rotator D16 is the same as Rotator D 12 except that it has 4 extended detent options by using dual detent plungers.
The 16 different degree stop increments (with equivalent number of stops around) include:
extended by using dual detent plungers
* 3.75 (96 stops)
* 5 (72 stops)
* 6 (60 stops)
* 18 (20 stops)
normal by using one detent plunger
* 7.5 (48 stops)
* 10 (36 stops)
* 12 (30 stops)
* 15 (24 stops)
* 20 (18 stops)
* 24 (15 stops)
* 30 (12 stops)
* 36 (10 stops)
* 45 (8 stops)
* 60 (6 stops)
* 90 (4 stops)
* 120 (3 stops)
Retail price for Rotator D16 is $199.95.
Nick, the update would be helpful for using my 135mm at 5* (72 stops). Will there be an upgrade path from the D12? Thanks, Scott
Thanks Nick. The D-16 seems like the one for me. Can't wait to see it! So arrival on the website is sometime this January?
Hi Nick,
I've placed a order for the Rotator R-D16!
