PRODUCT PAGES: For our US and Canadian customers - http://bit.ly/2ay7r05 For our UK customers - http://bit.ly/2anO8p7 For our English-speaking EU customers - http://bit.ly/2ay7Z5V Pour nos clients français - http://bit.ly/2aaWFIR Für unsere deutschen Kunden - http://bit.ly/2acHkvZ Para nuestros clientes españoles - http://amzn.to/1rRUz8C Per i nostri clienti italiani - http://amzn.to/1W0vgxy The 14" parabolic primary mirror doesn't just gobble up photons; it wolfs them down eagerly for your visual inspection. The XX14g features an innovative convex-back 356mm diameter primary mirror and a newly engineered mirror cell, which weighs 10 lbs. less than standard 14" mirror and cell combinations, yielding faster ambient temperature equilibration times so you get optimal visual results more quickly. The mirror cell accepts six specially designed threaded counterweights (included) to optimize balance. The dual-speed abilities of the 2" Crayford focuser with its 11:1 fine-focus ratio allows you to dial in precise details of any celestial denizen. Both 2" and 1.25" telescope eyepieces can be used, thanks to the included 1.25" step-down adapter. The XX14g includes both a 2" DeepView 28mm eyepiece for wide views and a 1.25" 12.5mm Plossl eyepiece with an illuminated reticle to help align the GoTo system precisely. Other stellar accessories include an EZ Finder II reflex sight, removable eyepiece rack, GoTo hand controller holder bracket, collimation cap, 12V DC power cable, and RS-232 cable for future firmware updates. A 12V power supply or AC-to-DC adapter (sold separately) is required for motorized operation.
