Hi,
Are these basically the same mount or is it specifically the HEQ 5 that is the same as the sirius mount?
Thanx

It's the HEQ5 that's the same as the Sirius (Tak clone). The EQ5 is a mildly beefed-up EQ4 (Vixen clone).

Yes, the EQ5 is essentially the same as the Orion Skyview Pro, nowhere near an HEQ5/Sirius.
