can i use this as my location 4.5 degree north
can i use this as my location 4.5 degree north
No. Even the Williams Optic Low Latitude wedge starts at 7 degree and up. I found a hack but it would require manufacturing a support using a 3D printer and parts of the GT-AZI mount.

I already have a very stable Acratech Long Lens Head & Levelling Base. Could it work instead of this SkyWatcher EQ Wedge (which I see from reviews is prone to some "wobble")? It would be nice to avoid additional expense and constant changing of heads.
The Acratech Long Lens Head with Leveling Base Kit can be used instead of the Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer Equatorial Wedge Base, but it is easier to make incremental latitude adjustments with the Wedge.
