Many of the best telescope eyepieces in the world carry the name of Tele Vue, including the Tele Vue Nagler eyepieces, Tele Vue Panoptic eyepieces, Tele Vue Radian eyepieces, Tele Vue Plossl eyepieces, and of course, the Ethos line, with their amazing 100° field of view. Tele Vue also produces fine Barlows and Powermates.

These Powermates are a better choice for 2" diagonals than Barlows, since they are nearly Parfocal. They are threaded for 48mm filters and their performance is excellent with every 1.25" and 2" eyepiece we make (yes, even the 31mm Nagler Type 5!). Both the 2" eyepiece holder and the special 2" flat top adapter use our brass clamp rings for secure operation. And, it also has a very unique feature; you can unscrew the 2" eyepiece housing and screw on a special T-ring adapter for solid, compact attachment of CCD or camera equipment. Excellent with long eye-relief, 2" eyepieces. Using the 4x model, imagine the quality of a 35mm Panoptic at 8.8mm with 25mm of eye relief! The Tele Vue Powermate is NOT a Barlow so the Panopti-Barlow Interface is not needed! The 2" Powermate fits all the way into 2" Star Diagonals, requiring minimal refocus compared to a 2" Barlow.
