Yes I have one. I had a lot of trouble with my alignment when my scope first arrived and I was using a Catseye Autocollimator and a Laser to get me close. I was chasing all over the place and making things worse. I did buy one of these from TE and It has helped and is great for eliminating any tilt. After a lot of trouble I finally achived good collimation using a "hall of Mirrors technique described here. http://www.davidcortner.com/slowblog/20110815c.php The Tak scope I believe is a effective (but expensive) device and requires you to have the correct adaptors to use it. I have used CCDInspector to verify the collimation and achieved good results with only a little bit of tilt to be resolved. Good luck as I know how frustrating it can be.
