I purchased this to put on my trashscope(which was given to me, I never would have purchased it but since I had it I wanted to make it useful) with the intention of making it useful. I love it. I now can use my telescope as a telescope instead of an ugly decoration.
Favorite viewing location:??Sam's Throne, Arkansas
Favorite object to observe:??M81 and M82
Yes, I recommend this product!
