[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 226209, member: 175144"] Unless the actuator is matched perfectly to the polarmount, there will be a limitation on one (or both sides ) of true South. One problem of standard polarmount designs on walls is that the actuator will stick out the back of the system, and may run into the wall if the bracketry is too small. Many of the cheaper polarmount designs also restrict the distance of the actuator from the main point of rotation and then accuracy of tracking and positioning is affected, and leads to premature wear of all parts. I would be very wary of any polarmount that can only use the mini jacks, though I do have one prototype in the garage somewhere that did look the business - will try to get some photos later.
