Yes I would agree with this, I got the idea off the web in 2004 from memory and modified it to suite and obviously use LEDS. Light boxes for larger scopes are a challenge and getting the bits and pieces can be a bit of a problem. My original was borne out of the fact I did not want to pay the ridiculous prices that were being charged for this in the USA, and I believe that manufacturer is no longer in business. From memory a light box for my TAK 130 was in the order of $600US then, and that was a lot of dollars over 20 years ago. Members on the forum got wind of what I had done and wanted me to make them for their scopes. That is it in a nutshell.
