GSO 2" Crayford Focuser for Refractors - Single Speed (with 86.4mm Telescope Adapter)
SOLID
This was a good direct fit into my ST-80. Its solid and heavy. It's quite good for a single speed, but next time I'll save for a 11:1. Its so much more accurate than the standard R&P focusers.

A definite improvement in brightness, contrast and clarity over "supplied" diagonals. Don't expect to see staggering differences, but definite, subtle improvements to be sure. This is a quality product that you can purchase with confidence that you w...

Blue Fireball Eyepiece Holder (2") with SCT Female Thread (SCT Visual Back) # C-01
Quality product, reasonable price
I'm using this to allow me to use a 2" 2x barlow along with my DSLR to take high powered images of the planets with my 8" SCT. The two thumbscrews make for a very solid and stable connection without worries of the camera turning or falling out. The...

GSO 1.25" Color / Planetary Filter - #11 Yellow / Green
Excellent filter for achromats
This is a very well made filter. The light transmission is high and works great on short tube achromats to suppress chromatic aberration without dimming the image. The wavelength of this filter matches the best correction band of visual achromats. Th...

Agena Multi-Reticle Reflex Finder with B0 Bracket and M5 Base
Excellent Quality!
I bought two of these finders - one for my large 120mm refractor and another for an 80mm guide scope piggybacked on the bigger scope. At the price buying two was not a problem. I have been amazed by the quality - the finder appears to be machined fro...

Howie Glatter 635nm High Brightness Red Laser Collimator - 1.25"
Outstanding collimator
Well it's not cheap but it is outstanding. Fits perfectly in my gso and moonlight focusers. You can spin it around in the focuser and the red dot does not move on the primary. Very bright laser too so its easy to see in daylight. Very high quality...

Agena 2" Neutral Density Filter ND-0.3 50% Transmission
Turn The Moon Down!
I got one of each of the available strengths to match up with my ES 2 inch 100 degree eyepieces. Moon watching in my 12" dob is now very comfortable.

Meade #128 1.25" 3x Short-Focus Barlow Lens # 07278
Awesome barlow
It's a great Barlow. Short, compact, lightweight and easy to focus. Clear on low to midrange viewing, on high magnification of course a loss in detail will occur. I also own a 2x Barlow and I mainly use this with my low to high power viewing. I own ...

Agena 2" Ultra Wide Angle (UWA) Eyepiece - 15mm
Amazing Eyepiece!
This eyepiece is oustanding for the price. I dont understand why some people spend huge amount of money on exotic ones! I agree with Agena, they are not 80 degrees, but very close! Took the 2inch barlow out for a try and I was surprised with the qual...

Antares Quick Release Bracket and Base for 50mm Finders
Very good but could have been better
The bracket is very good but could have been better. First off make sure you are buying the right one, there is a model availalbe for SCTs which includes the SCT base - I didn't get this one and I had to order the base separately. I love the design...

Explore Scientific 2" 100° Series Argon-Purged Waterproof Eyepiece - 9mm
Great Eyepiece
Very nice high quality eyepiece. I also have an Ethos and although this one is a different focal length and can't compare apples apples it seems on par with the TV as far as build quality and sharpness of the stars across the entire 100 degree field...

Explore Scientific 2" 82° Series Argon-Purged Waterproof Eyepiece - 24mm
Excellent Eyepiece
This is a fantastic eyepiece with a very high quality build (on par with Televue). Just had it out in my f5 dob (with a Paracorr) and stars are beautiful pinpoints across the entire wide field. Great service from Agena as always.

GSO Parabolic Primary and Secondary Mirror Set - 8" f/4
Excellent mirror at good price.
Very nice mirror at good price. Quick shipment as well. I tested the mirror on my mirror tester and it came in at least as 1/4 wave front quality, which for the price is very respectable. Imaging with a coma corrector produced excellent results over ...

Antares 2" to 1.25" Twist-Lock Eyepiece Adapter
Twist-Lock Adapter Rocks!
No more fumbling with set screws when changing eyepieces. Just a slight twist releases one eyepiece and/or tightens another. There is no slippage. I use a 1.25" laser collimator in my 2" focuser and after collimating I can remove the collimator and r...

Blue Fireball 1.25" Eyepiece Extension Tube with 1" Extension # X-01
Converts a TV 2x barlow to 2.4X
Nicely finished, nicely machined product--this is the second blue fireball accessory I've bought. I got the 1" extension in order to use my televue 2x (1.25") barlow as a 2.4X barlow, and it seems to do the trick. Many televue 1.25" eyepieces requi...
