Purchased this off another memeber to dip my toe into spectroscopy as I have always been curious about it.
Took it out for a few nights this week and was pretty interesting to see the spectrum of a star instead of a photograph.
Now that my curiosities are satisfied and if I wasn't aiming to setup a second solar rig up I would keep it and invest more time into it. Now it's up for sale as I don't have enough time to dive into another whole new field of astronomy.
Comes with filter (obviously), stopping ring and box. Instead of the stopping ring I used a little bit of plumbers tape on the threads as you need to orient the filter the correct way so the spectra is horizontal.
Asking $160 inc. post or $150 pickup.
