Orion EON 120mm ED Refractor OTA.

I bought this about four months ago from Bintel
as a grab and go scope but I have found it a bit
too large for quick set ups so I am hoping to find
a better home for it.

Like new condition.

Features include:
120mm doublet FPL-53 ED glass.
900mm focal length, f/7.5.
Dual-speed 2" 360° rotatable Crayford focuser
with very smooth 11:1 fine-focus
(holds a 31 Nagler near zenith).
WO type hinged tube rings and
21cm Vixen style dovetail mounting bar.
1.25" eyepiece adaptor.
Dovetail finder scope base on OTA.
Aluminium objective lens cap.
Retractable lens shade.
Aluminium-clad carrying case.
My improvised OTA carry handle.
My mum's hand knitted woollen lens shade cosy.

Also included is a Kendrick Premium 5" dew heater strap worth $109
and a Telegizmos TGR5 scope/GEM mount cover worth US$58 plus post.

In the spirit of full disclosure, it does have
one small dust speck on an internal element.

Paid $2799 at Bintel.

Asking $1900

Pick up only from Dee Why, Sydney, at the moment.

PM me,
gb.
