Heey hey, Thanks for the video. Quick question, what type of grease /lube do you use? I hear very conflicting stories on using white lithium grease. Some day it is the best others say it will ruin your mount.

I'm afraid I don't have a clear and simple answer for your question. But I am happy to share my experience. For my mount I have used a muli purpose grease 1 from Würth because I had it laying around. That's not the best possible grease but it worked fine for my old LXD75 mount. Lithium grease offers very good performance but it can be aggressive to some Polymer's like Nylon for example. A lot of people seem to be happy with using Super Lube on their mounts. But I have no experience with that. Soon I want to hypertune my Celestron CGEM mount. For that I will try some grease with MoS2 which works similar to graphite. (Something like Liqui Moly LM47 grease) but I haven't tried it yet.

Nyogel dampening grease - 765c and 767a (the latter is stickier). They are very high quality and not cheap. Lithium grease will separate over time and is not the best for cast aluminum. It might be fine for the worms, but I use Nyogel.
