Telescope and mount (what came 'in the box')
• 8” Mead LX200R with GPS
• Autostar II hand controller and cable
• Field tripod
• Meade 26mm Plossl 5 Element Eyepiece
• Meade 1.25” Diagonal

(note: no Meade finder scope although a Bintel right angle finder scope is included)

Extras
• Vixen LVW 8mm Lanthanum Series Eyepiece
• Vixen LVW 17mm Lanthanum Series Eyepiece
• Vixen NLV 40mm Eyepiece
• Orion Illuminated Plossl 12.5mm – in poor condition and needs cleaning by an expert would probably be OK after that
• Meade Zero Image shift micro focuser and cable (only used 2-3 times as I prefer the Crayford focuser)
• Bintel right angle correct image 8 x 50 finder scope
• Bintel 10:1 precision micro crayford style focuser (2” with a 1.25” adaptor)
• Bintel 2” mirror diagonal
• Gel-Tech 32 A.H. battery, 2 x cigarette lighter adaptors attached, for powering the ‘scope and dew remover – it’s been kept on standby charge whenever not being used so should be good.
• Ctek multi XS 3600 240v charger for the Gel-Tech battery
• Power cable for ‘scope

• Kendrick firefly dew remover (7-8”) for objective – controller has 4 outputs, single channel, power cable attached
• Mead Series 4000 f/6.3 focal reducer/ field flattener
• Orion StarSeek Wi-Fi Module (with manual), for controlling scope with for example Ipad and the sky safari app – cable plug to StarSeek slightly loose but duct tape fixed that!
• Stellar Seat
• Vanguard, hard shell, foam padded, case for eyepieces and hand controller
• Laser pointer – 532nm, <20mw output – rubber on its outside has become sticky but the pointer works fine.

Hi mate,

I would be interested in your F6.3 Reducer, if you would part with only that?

thanks
Mark Godfrey.
