Telrad Finder

Telrad Finder

The Telrad is the best-selling non-magnifying finder for Dobsonians, equatorial reflectors, refractors, and Schmidt-Cassegrains alike.
The Telrad projects a series of concentric red rings (4 degrees, 2 degrees, and one-half degree in diameter) on a tilted clear viewing plate at the top of the finder. These circles make it easy to starhop from object to object. If a galaxy is 10 degrees north of a known star, for example, two 4 degree Telrad jumps and one 2 degree jump from the known star will take you to that galaxy in seconds. The half-degree circle makes it easy to quickly center a computerized scope on guide stars for start-up alignment, and to center on planets, comets, and deep space objects if you’re scanning the sky manually. The red circles can be seen from virtually any distance behind the Telrad, from two inches to two feet, so eyeglass-wearers can easily use the finder.

Collimating knobs at the back of the Telrad allow you to line up the finder with your main scope optics. An on/off switch and integral rotary brightness control allow you to match the finder brightness to your eye’s dark adaptation. The Telrad uses two 1.5V AA batteries

Sky at Night Magazine said "we loved the view through the Telrad and everything worked without fuss"

Rubber eyecups (pair) with side wings

Rubber eyecups (pair) with side wings

These soft rubber eyecups are perfect for daytime viewing, or viewing at night from a light-polluted site. They improve the eyepiece view and comfort greatly, and the side wings or blinkers act as screens to ensure that the minimum amount of extraneous light enters your eye so that you only see the light that has passed through the telescope. They will fit most popular 1.25" Plössl eyepieces. With most eyepieces the existing rubber eyecup should be left in place - simply fit the winged version over the top. Supplied as a pair, they are also the ideal compliment for binocular viewing systems especially when used for solar observing.

The new Baader AstroSolarT Safety Film (neutral density=5)

The new Baader AstroSolarT Safety Film (neutral density=5)

Baader Planetarium is a safety film for solar observation. It is made for the construction of high-quality objective-filters for observing the sun with telescopes, binoculars, camera or video-lenses. This foil is CE-tested and reduces the intensity of sunlight by 99.999%.

Baader Planetariums AstroSolarTM safety film is a specially manufactured streak- and blisterfree foil. It attains the optical performance of planeparallel glass filters. The base material is not "Mylar"!. The basic development of this film was made in laboratories for nuclear- and particle physics.

High density coatings on both sides of the foil ensures a highly uniform filtering, while neutralizing the occasional miscroscopic holes in the coating. The image of the sun is extremely contrasty and of almost neutral colour.

Baader planetarium SILICA - GEL

Baader planetarium SILICA - GEL
Silica gel - drying agent 125ml with pollution free color indicator

Most damage to stored Optics equipment is caused by humidity trapped within the enclosed storage area itself. Humidity trapped within enclosed space turns into almost imperceptible condensation which causes irreparable damage. Silica gel prevents these moisture related problems before they begin. Silica gel creates a protective shield of dry air within any enclosed storage area.

The Silica Gel crystals have a built-in indicator which turns from pink to clear signalling when the product is saturated with moisture and needs reactivation. Once saturated with moisture, silica gel can be easily reactivated in a conventional oven for lifetime protection.
