7x2" FIlterwheel for 50mm umounted filters

I bought this to mount my LRGBSHO 50mm unmounted filter and I was disappointed that there is no way to connect it without the masks, touptek doesn't provide these mask in the box, you either have to 3D print or buy a 3D printed masks

Filterwheel 7x2“

Works without any problems. I would give 5 stars If there would be enough screws included to close the screwholes at the opposide of the camera. When an other OAG then Touptek is connected, the filterwheel is not lighttight when these screwholes are not closed.

Pas content du tout

C'est la 2ème fois que je suis déçu par Touptek.
Après les déboire avec StellaVita qui ne tient pas la route face à Asiair ou StellarMate, c'est au tour de la roue à filtres 7x2" AFW.
Aucune notice de montage mécanique à l'intérieur ni sur leur site. Il y a des tas de vis et de rondelles dont on ne sait pas à quoi elles servent.
Trop c'est trop et autant j'étais satisfait avec leurs caméras, autant je suis déçu du reste.

Perfect AFW

Excellent AFW, quality item and for me 100% reliable. Bought it together with a 585M Pro and the complete LRGB/SHO filter set - a fantastic deal. Many all-night sessions using NINA had no issues whatsoever and resulted in very good imaging results with all filters.

Value for Money

Solid design but not without flaws. If you are not gonna bolt a camera or oag then you need to cover the holes because of annoying light leak. Price is welcoming compare to rivals.

Review of the AFW-L 7x2inch

I bought this FW in combination with the Touptek SkyEye62AM. Shipping to Sweden was without any issues, just as stated by Touptek. After only 4 days the package was delivered to my home.
The AFW is working as expected, with a very easy, but fully adjustable ASCOM interface. Powered over USB, I only need a short cable from the camera hub to the FW, very practical and clean setup. Still, there is one serious issue, and it is for people (such as myself) that plan to use this FW with Baader filters (and potentially others?). The 2 inch mounted Baader filters are too big for the current filter wheel construction. As the wheel tries to rotate the filters collide with the holder of the photo sensor (I think thats what it is) and blocks the wheel from rotation. I did manage to do some smaller mechanical adjustments of the blocking holder, and after that the Baader filters can be used in the FW, but doing these adjustments most probably ruins the warranty. So, if you plan to use filters other that Toupteks own, be ready for some DIY work.

I would give 5 stars except for ...

the screws that retain the faceplate are machine tightened too much, trying to remove them by. by hand using the screwdriver provided only ruins the heads...

Clearance issues

I installed some LRGB filters, and it works fine with those, but when I went to add Baader SHO Fill l filters, they aren't able to clear the moving mechanism and cause the wheel to jam. Really disappointed and wish there was a warning about this.

Perfect Filter Wheel

Touptek Filter Wheel went well with the ASI2600MM and the Touptek OAG. Holes align perfectly well. The screw connection is very secure better using the thread. The sales and service of Touptek is also amazing. The packages arrived within 4 days. Everything was taken care of, even the customs. Very Satisfied.

Nice filter Wheel

I also own filter wheels from ZWO and got this large wheel for 2" filters. So far I used it for two nights in the cold german winter and I had no issues at all.
