Meade #1220 Field De-Rotator [RELISTED]

This is a relisted item from over a year ago. I keep having to go away for work, so I couldn't maintain the listing at the time. Since then, the weather has been poor for astronomy, so this item has sat in it's box, in another box.

For those who are not sure, a de-rotator allows the user to take longer-exposure images, while using an ALT/AZ mount.


I had so little luck in buying one locally, that I had to get this one from the US through Astromart a couple of years ago. Only a couple of minor cosmetic marks appear on the body of this device.

Sadly, it hasn't had much use in that time, and now that I have a wedge, it has just been in my "spares pile" of items.

The de-rotator works very well, and is designed for LX-200 scopes, from 8-12" apertures (according to the box). Blackwidow (Mardy) was good enough to give me the instructions a couple of years back, and I will include them in this package as well.

Comes in the original padded Meade box, as per the images, and also has the necessary RS-232 cable.

Bintel Price New: AUD$649.00

Asking $379 shipped inside AU.

PM's please.

For those wondering why I am selling it; I have a wedge that I am trying to work out, and don't want a fall-back device (I don't want to give up on the wedge as too hard).

Time for a bump.

It really is a good device, if a wedge isn't your thing, and an LX200 is your thing!
