Hi everyone
Just wanting to know if anyone has had any experience fitting a 2 speed focuser to a 10" Meade Lightbridge? And if it would be worth it? I get frustrated with focusing as i cant never keep things sharp. I relise veiwing conditions are a factor but i see images sharp as i focus but can hardly keep them that way. Im also pretty sure my collimation is fine

Thanks for any advice :)

You can actually retrofit the 10:1 module to the stock lightbridge focuser, I thnk they are about $50 from Bintel. This saves you replacing the whole focuser which would be $100+
A useful upgrade IMO
