This diagonal delivers top performance in both categories, with an over 99% reflective mirror and diffraction-limited optical quality. This ensures that virtually all the light collected by the telescope will reach the eyepiece without the diagonal affecting optical performance. Using a lower quality star diagonal can both dim the view and degrade optical quality. You can enjoy better views from your telescope by simply swapping out its diagonal for a premium one, like the Celestron Dielectric Star Diagonal.

93691 Stereo Binocular Viewer by Celestron

Add the Celestron Stereo Binocular Viewer to your repertoire and enjoy celestial views with more contrast and improved detail!

Our eyes work as a team, and our brains are wired to work with images that both eyes produce together. When we use just one eye to do observations through an optical device, the results are lacking somewhat in detail and contrast. A binoviewer uses two matching eyepieces to allow you to get the most out of your observations. Your eyes will relax, and you'll find that you can observe for longer periods of time without suffering from eye fatigue.

The Celestron Binocular Viewer is well-made, with a rubberized coating to make it easy to grip, even with gloves on. The 22 mm BaK-4 fully multi-coated prisms provide increased light transmission with no vignetting or light cut-off. Each eyepiece holder can be individually focused, and diopter adjustment readings are well marked. The 1.25" insert barrel is threaded for filters, allowing you to use one filter instead of threading them on each individual eyepiece.

The Celestron Binocular Viewer weighs about 18 ounces and uses approximately 3.5 inches of back focus. This is sufficient for most catadioptric telescopes (Schmidt-Cassegrain, Maksutov-Cassegrain, etc.) as well as a good number of refractor-style telescopes. Newtonians and some spotting scopes have the least amount of back focus. Using a binoviewer on these designs may result in the inability to focus to infinity. Remember, binocular viewers require the use of two matched 1.25" eyepieces, which are sold separately.

• Binoviewers improve views dramatically, producing a three dimensional effect that you'll love!
• Using two eyes for observing instead of one lets you see more detail, reduces eye fatigue, and increases contrast.
• For use with catadioptric telescopes and other telescopes with sufficient back focus.
• Includes an aluminum carry case with foam-lined interior.
• Requires a matching pair of 1.25" eyepieces, sold separately.

94023 Aluminum Dew Shield with Cover Cap - 11" by Celestron

The Celestron Aluminum Dew Shield with Cover Cap is an essential accessory that protects your telescope tube in the field. The dew shield reduces radiative cooling of the Schmidt corrector lens to the night sky, thus keeping the lens below the dew point longer preventing dew formation on the lens. Additionally, the Aluminum Dew Shield increases image contrast by blocking stray light from entering the telescope for better viewing and astroimaging. Use the Aluminum Dew Shield on your 11" EdgeHD, RASA, or Schmidt Cassegrain (made after 2006) telescope tube confidently, knowing it was created for your exact instrument.

Construction

The Aluminum Dew Shield provides a perfect, custom fit for 11" Celestron telescope tubes. The exterior of the dew shield is a rigid, aluminum cylinder that will not fold, flex, or deform. Inside, a velvet-lined interior absorbs any additional stray light and excess moisture, creating optimal contrast when viewing and imaging. Attach the dew shield to your telescope tube with the two adjustable clips to ensure a snug fit.

We've also constructed the cover cap from durable yet lightweight aluminum. When your telescope is not in use, place the cover cap on your dew shield to protect your Schmidt corrector from stray dust particles. The cover cap also offers you the ability to quickly and easily acquire dark frames for imaging.

If you're an astroimager who enjoys using your Schmidt-Cassegrain or EdgeHD in the Fastar/Hyperstar configuration or the RASA, you're probably used to running cables out the front of the dew shield. Simplify and streamline your setup with the Aluminum Dew Shield's integrated cable management slot at the base. This slot gives you an easy way to corral essential cables (like the ones for our Dew Heater rings) without potentially allowing light pollution to leak in. Also, there are cutouts to accommodate dovetail rails on the top and bottom of the telescope tube, ensuring a good fit regardless of the configuration.

94035 Smart DewHeater Controller 2X by Celestron

Work smarter, not harder, when it comes to combating dew. The Smart DewHeater and Controller 2x prolongs your battery life by optimizing power usage for up to two dew heaters. The controller gathers and analyzes information in real time to warm your optics just enough to prevent dew.

The Smart DewHeater and Controller comes with two ports to control two dew heaters at once. You can use one port to heat your optical tube while the other warms a second optical tube, a guide scope, an eyepiece, or another accessory. The controller also features an additional 12V DC output port so you can power another 12V DC device, such as your mount.

The Smart DewHeater and Controller works seamlessly with Celestron's Dew Heater Rings, which have a built-in thermistor to provide temperature readings of the corrector lens. Third-party dew heater bands or straps are also compatible; you simply need to add Celestron's Thermistor for Smart DewHeater Controllers (sold separately).

Smart Controls

At the heart of the controller is a powerful microprocessor that gathers information from the sensors, computes the data, and automatically adjusts your dew heaters. The controller monitors the ambient temperature and humidity using its integrated environmental sensor and monitors the heaters' temperatures using thermistors.

You can run the Smart DewHeater and Controller 2x as a standalone accessory. Or, if you want to view data from the controller and make manual adjustments, you can connect it to your Celestron telescope's hand control or your PC. The controller works with NexStar+ or StarSense hand controls running the latest firmware or Celestron CPWI telescope control software, included with every Celestron mount.

Power

The Smart DewHeater and Controller 2x runs on a 12V DC battery (like our PowerTank Lithium Pro or PowerTank 17) and can handle a maximum power of 120W (10A max current @ 12V DC). The controller also features a 12V DC output port. You can use this extra port to power another device, like your mount. This way, you can power your entire setup from a single source. Resettable electronic fuses prevent damage if input or output current draw becomes too high.

NOTE: If you are using two dew heaters in heavy dew conditions and powering a 12V DC device, the controller may be operating near its power limit. In this case, one PowerTank Lithium Pro or PowerTank 17Ah will not have enough capacity to run your setup all night; you'll need a larger capacity battery or multiple batteries.

Unique Industrial Design

The Smart DewHeater and Controller 2x features a heavy-duty metal housing. Inside, a cooling fan protects the controller's electronics.

The Bridge – On top of the controller, you will find the bridge, which is home to the device's status LEDs and environmental sensors. It also helps with cable management. We have positioned the temperature and humidity sensors here, away from the control box and other components that could generate heat. Unlike competitor products, our sensors do not require additional cables to obtain accurate readings.

The LED lights on the bridge indicate the device's current status. The LEDs provide warnings if the controller is drawing more current than your power source can supply or if the battery charge needs recharging. You can dim the lights if you are under dark skies.

Mounting – The Celestron Smart DewHeater and Controller 2x mounts on your CGE or CG-5 dovetail with the integrated dovetail clamps. If you prefer to mount the controller on your tripod leg, use the included strap.

Smart DewHeater and Controller 2x comes complete with:

• Smart DewHeater and Controller 2x
• Tripod leg strap
• Controller power cable
• Power cable for external 12V DC device
• AUX cable for connecting to Celestron mounts
• Thermistor extension cable to attach to Celestron's Dew Heater Ring

Enhance your setup

We highly recommend pairing this controller with Celestron Dew Heater Rings. They fit seamlessly on your Schmidt corrector lens and will improve your observing or imaging year-round.

For the highest level of dew prevention, we also suggest adding a dew shield to your setup. While not required, a dew shield will cut down on the amount of power the controller needs to provide to the dew heater rings to keep your optics clear.

• Using real-time data, the controller provides just enough heat to prevent dew from forming, prolonging battery life
• "Smart control" system monitors ambient temperature and humidity and adjusts power to the dew heaters automatically
• Compatible with Celestron Dew Heater Rings and third-party heating bands or straps (with thermistor accessory)
• Supports up to two dew heaters plus one additional 12V DC device, such as your mount
• Works with your Celestron telescope's hand control or CPWI telescope control software so you can view data and make manual adjustments
• Mounts securely to your telescope's dovetail or tripod leg
• Durable metal housing features an integrated cooling fan to protect the controller's electronics

94155-A Focus Motor for SCT and EdgeHD by Celestron

The Focus Motor for SCT & EdgeHD provides electronic focusing for Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain (SCT) and EdgeHD telescope optical tubes. With the focus motor installed, you can bring celestial objects into sharp, precise focus using your telescope's hand controller or a computer instead of using the focuser knob. A focus motor is great for visual observers who want to dial in exact focus (especially those with dexterity issues) and a must-have accessory for astroimagers. With a motorized focuser installed, an astroimager no longer needs to be physically near the telescope to focus an image. Combined with computerized control of the mount and camera, the focus motor enables the imager to gather data remotely from a backyard observatory, or even a telescope located hundreds of miles away. As an added bonus, port covers protect the ports while not in use, and the covers cannot be lost due to the tethered design.

• The Celestron Focus Motor for SCT and EdgeHD enables electronic focusing using a computer or Celestron computerized mount hand controller for remote/hands-free observing.
• Self-powering: When connected to a Celestron computerized mount, the mount provides the power. When connected directly to a computer, USB provides the power.
• Compatible with a wide variety of Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain, EdgeHD, and Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph optical tubes. Check description for full list.
• Motor controls include multiple speed rates, automatic GoTo indexed focuser position, and focuser backlash compensation.
• Focuser Utility software for Windows provides a simple user interface. Also compatible with Celestron PWI.
• Enables autofocusing with a camera and third-party software via ASCOM.
• Indexed focus position allows the motor to automatically return to a previous focus position and prevents the focus motor from reaching the end of telescope's mechanical focus travel.
• Now compatible with the 9.25" EdgeHD.

Compatible Optical Tubes

The focus motor is compatible with all SCTs from 6" to 14" in aperture that have been produced since the year 2006. It is not compatible with 5" SCTs or older models. It is compatible with the 8" Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA), the 36cm RASA, the 7" Maksutov-Cassegrain, and all the EdgeHD optical tubes. It can also be used with the 11" RASA, but requires the Focuser Retrofit Kit for RASA 11.

For 6" Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes only, the Off-Axis Guider (#93648) cannot be used when the focus motor is installed due to mechanical interferences.

Power Options

There are three options for powering your Celestron Focus Motor:

1. When using a Celestron computerized mount, you can power and control the focus motor through the mount using the supplied AUX cable. This allows control from the mount's hand controller (NexStar+ or StarSense) or a computer.
2. If you are not using a Celestron mount, you can power and control the focus motor from a computer USB port.
3. You will need a user supplied USB A-to-B cable. You may also opt to use an external 12V DC power source which plugs into the motor's power jack.

Compatible Software

Celestron offers a free Focuser Utility program for computer control. The Celestron PWI software can also control the focus motor. To use third-party focuser control software, an ASCOM driver is needed.

94303 1.25" Eyepiece and Filter Kit by Celestron

• This 1.25" Eyepiece & Filter Kit includes fourteen (14) accessories that will add new life to your telescope and your observing!
• You'll get five quality Plossl eyepieces, a 2X Barlow Lens, six colored filters to improve observations of the planets, a Moon filter, and a foam-fitted aluminum carry case with extra room to grow.
• Five eyepieces and a Barlow lens equals ten different magnifications to choose from, including the equivalent of a 3mm, 4mm, 6mm, 6.5mm, 8mm, 8.5mm, 13mm, 16mm, 17mm and 32mm. And that doesn't include eyepieces you may already have in your collection, which will now achieve double the magnification with the addition of the Barlow.
• A Moon filter will increase your enjoyment of lunar observations by dimming the brightness and increasing contrast
• The most popular planetary filters are included in this kit. Have fun seeing what a blue filter will reveal about Jupiter, or unveil the polar ice caps on Mars with a red or orange filter.

The Celestron 1.25" Eyepiece and Filter Kit is a great way to expand the functionality and enjoyment of your telescope. Inside the metal, foam-lined carry case you'll find these accessories:

• 32 mm Plossl Eyepiece - 1.25"
• 17 mm Plossl Eyepiece - 1.25"
• 13 mm Plossl Eyepiece - 1.25"
• 8 mm Plossl Eyepiece - 1.25"
• 6 mm Plossl Eyepiece - 1.25"
• 2X Barlow Lens - 1.25"
• #80A Blue Filter - 1.25"
• #58A Green Filter - 1.25"
• #56 Light Green Filter - 1.25"
• #25 Red Filter - 1.25"
• #21 Orange Filter - 1.25"
• #12 Yellow Filter - 1.25"
• Moon Filter - 1.25"

2X Barlow Lens - The included, and very versatile 2X Barlow doubles the magnification of any 1.25" eyepiece. Since this kit includes five (5) eyepieces, you will be able to use them with and without the Barlow, giving you a total of ten magnification options in all. Any other 1.25" eyepieces you already have will also work in this desirable accessory, giving you even more magnification choices. Remember, high magnifications do not always produce clear, sharp results, especially on evenings of poor or moderate seeing conditions. Experiment to find the magnifications that are best for your telescope on a particular night.

Filters - Colored filters can be used to bring out certain details on a planet's surface or its cloud structure. All of the planetary filters included in the 1.25" Eyepiece & Accessory Kit, as well as the Moon filter, can be used on any 1.25" eyepiece with the proper filter threads, so they are very versatile. Just screw one onto your eyepiece of choice and slide it into the focuser.

The Moon filter is one of the first accessories most new amateur astronomers buy, and for good reason! It helps block out a portion of the light the Moon sends into your eyepiece so that you can see details better. You can also try this filter on Venus; it blocks enough glare so you can observe the planet's phases more easily.

Metal Case: The sturdy metal carry case has die-cut foam inside to protect and cushion your accessories. Store each one in its appointed place when not in use and you'll keep them looking and performing like new. The case is even large enough to carry a few extra accessories. Just pull out enough of the foam cubes to make a nest for your eyepiece, camera adapter, etc. A tight fit is better, so remove the least amount of foam possible before testing the fit. You can always remove more if you need to.
