Description
A new take on Telrad's iconic finder, this version of the Reflex Sight is offered with a switchable red or green reticle for good contrast against the background. It is outfitted with a generous 2.5 x 1.4" viewing window that provides a wide unmagnified true view of the sky, unlike conventional finder scopes that offer limited fields of view presented upside down and backwards. Three concentric rings spaced at 4, 2, and 0.5 provide an easy point of reference for locating objects and quick navigation when manually star-hopping. An easy-to-use, infinitely adjustable rheostat enables precise brightness control so users won't hurt their night-adjusted vision. A mounting base is included, and the sight easily detaches from it for storage or to move it to another OTA with a separate mounting base already attached without requiring it to be recentered with the OTA.Performance Wide unmagnified field of viewGenerous 2.5 x 1.4" viewing windowReticle can be switched between red and green for optimal contrast against background conditionsLong eye reliefZero parallaxProvides uncluttered, correct 'real sky' view for quick manual sighting of known objects like planets, stars, clusters, and galaxiesReticle Red or green illumination makes the reticle clearly visible without affecting night-adjusted visionThree concentric circles set at 4, 2, and 0.5 to help 'star hopping'Infinitely adjustable rheostat allows for precise illumination controlUse and Handling Quick detachment from the mounting base enables it to be removed and installed quickly without recalibrationRuns on two user-supplied AA batteriesWeight: 9 oz without mount
