Baader 2" Clicklock Clamp for Pentax Refractors (M84 Thread) # CLPX-2 2956284
5.0
Neatest Thing Since Sliced Bread
This is the best visual back for an SCT that I've ever used. No fumbling or messing with thumbscrews in the dark. You can easily reposition your diagonal, or camera with a twist of the collet on the visual back. Precise centering and built like a Pa...

Fantastic Optical Quality and Build
Absolutely THE best Diagonal out there. Beats all the others hands down. No shortcuts here, just a high quality piece that would fit that "must have" upgrade. Works perfectly on my C9.25 SCT and my 4.3" Refractor. No light falloff, and clear across t...

Agena 1.25" Cheshire Collimating Eyepiece for Newtonian Reflectors
5.0
Very Useful, Accurate and Well Built
In comparison to other alignment (collimating) methods, I prefer using this. It's simple, fast, and won't ever fail due to dead batteries.

Better Than Expected
Bought the rings for a Mak guidescope and found them solidly made. Hinges are strong and latching mechanism good.

Very handy containers!
And I didn't even use it for eyepieces this time!

Great little canisters - I used these for storage and field protection of my Canon intervalometer and accessories. No cable kinking to worry about.

Good value, great quality.
I use this with my Meade DSI II mono for astrophotography and it works great. Plus, the price can't be beat.

GSO 1.25" Plossl Eyepiece - 6mm

The Best Cheapest Eyepiece Ever
Almost as good as a Baader, just very tight eye relief is only problem and just on the 6mm, the others in the line up are even better.

Blue Fireball 2" Extensions
I was very impressed by the quality of this extension. It's robust construction makes it one component that I don't worry about in the focusing train of my homebuilt cassegrain telescopes.

I used this to replace the cheap plastic focuser on a Meade 2090 refractor.

Very comfortable to use
This is my first eyepiece that is not of the economical variety. I am very pleased with this one, it really is "that much better". Looking forward to more of these for my C11-S!

Dew Free so you can See!
I looked around for a while for a dew heater and eventually bought this one. I have to say I am very happy with it. Its small (about 3x3 inches) and built like a tank! The 4 outputs are nice, I have a 10" Dob and run a Telrad Dew Heater, one for the ...

Nicely made Diagonal
Turned a mediocre spotting scope into a truly useful spotting snooping scope. Good light transmission and nicely made. Inexpensive to boot.
