	QuikFinder One Tenth the size and weight of the competition's "reflex" sight, makes aiming your telescope easy with its wide-open right-side-up view. Projects 1/2 and 2 Degree Red circles Onto the Night Sky in focus with the stars -- what you see in the red circles is what you get in your telescope. Pulsed or Continuous Illumination of Reticle -- at your behest. A standard feature on QuikFinder, a $20 option on the "competition's" reflex sight. Compact Design Lets You Use Both Eyes to see fainter than with the Competition's "reflex" sight. Two Baseplates Lets You Use It on Two Telescopes. Easy clip-on / clip-off mounting to baseplate (no screws to fumble with). QuikFinder AA Battery Pack Easy to install battery pack gives up to 2700 hours of operation from 2 AA alkaline batteries (not included), almost 10 times longer than the lithium coin cell that comes with the QuikFinder. No soldering required, just clip a notch as shown and insert battery clip in place of coin cell, and attach battery holder to side of QuikFinder with double sided tape.

	NEW! Stepper Motor & seleTEK stepper motor Controller for GSO, and other stepper motorized focuser For those who want computer controlled auto focus, then motorize your focuser with our 0.125 degree resolution stepper motor and seleTEK computerized stepper motor interface. is a unipolar stepper motor focus controller that works with any ASCOM compliant program such as FocusMax and others. It is an absolute focuser and provides excellent auto-focusing results.
	NEW! QuikAdapt Digital Camera Adaptor Universal Digital Camera Adaptor The best and easiest digital camera adaptor for telescopes. QuikAdapt is the easiest to attach! QuikAdapt is the easiest to remove! QuikAdapt is the easiest to use! QuikAdapt is the easiest to adjust! QuikAdapt is the rigidest!
	Spectroscopy View or Photograph the Spectra of Stars in COLOR The RS-Spectroscope attaches to an eyepiece to spread light from stars and nebulae into a rainbow of colors, colors that provide a whole new way to enjoy astronomy. Astronomers analyze the rainbows of stars -- analyze the colors present and the colors missing -- to decode the message in starlight, a message that reveals the true nature of stars, nebulae and the universe. Use the RS-Spectroscope to experience what astronomy textbooks only describe. Discover the absorption and emission lines that fingerprint the chemical makeup of stars and nebulae. See the OBAFGKM spectral sequence in living color. Visualize the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram that arranges stars by luminosity, size, temperature, pasts, presents and futures
	PulsGuide Pulsing Eyepiece Illuminator Less Eye Fatigue = Better Astrophotographs -- PulsGuide pulses the reticle illumination to let the eye rest between pulses. The result? Improved contrast between reticle and faint guide stars for easier guiding and better astrophotographs or acquisition of faint object in your finderscope. Two Knob Timing Control and Adjustable Brightness -- 2 knobs let you independently tailor on and off blink times from continuous on to long-on/short-off or short-on/long-off or anything in between. Two Color LEDs -- Comes with red LED which you can switch to yellow LED by unplugging red and plugging in yellow. Some astrophotographers find low level yellow makes the cross hair clearer and sharper, and makes guiding even easier. Available With or Without Eyepiece -- Use our quality, dual crosshair, 12.5mm plossl eyepiece or with your eyepiece or finder. Fits standard 8mm threaded hole. 10mm and 14mm set-screw adapters available. Uses one long life lithium battery (included) that is available at most electronics, camera and hardware stores.

	Aline Telescope Alignment Eyepiece Brighter than any Cheshire eyepiece for 1/6-1/12 the cost. A must fo rich-field and fast Newtonians and Dobsonians. Look Into Your Telescope Through an Aline and you see a bright white circle surrounding the image of your eye's pupil, making it easier to center the primary and secondary mirrors, which is especially important for aligning rich field and fast Newtonian and Dobsonian telescopes.
	Trained Sky Star Atlas Two Polar and six Equatorial maps cover the sky in large enough swaths to make it easy to see relationships between constellations, with minimum distortion. Each map is 11 x 17 inches printed on heavy duty card stock. All stars down to 6th magnitude plotted with easy to read magnitude symbols.Lots of Non-Stellar objects plotted -- I haven't counted them but there's a whole bunch! Easy to follow directions for picking the right map for the right time of night for the right time of year.Three tables of the best and the brightest -- Table of 32 Bright Stars, Table of 122 Multiple Stars, Table of 160 Non Stellar Objects including all the Messier objects. Large font makes them easy to read.Table of Constellation names and abbreviations indexed to maps make it easy to find the right map.
