My orange moonlite focuser has arrived!!!!

[swag72]

Oh, how exciting. I ordered my Moonlite focuser from FLO on 7th March. Unfortunately they didn't have any on stock, so I had to wait for the shipment from the US. So, fast forward to today .............

............. The FEDEX van arrives and when I open the box, this orange moonlite focuser is absolutely beautiful. What a truely lovely piece of engineering.

Oh I am so excited to use it - It even has 2 finderscope areas, so one for the finder and one for the guider scope, no more messing about and changing them over. Oh, this is just fab!!!!

Pics in a day or 2, you know that while you've been having lovely clear skies, my weather over here in Spain has been pants!!! You've stolen my clear skies!!

[iwatkins]

Ooooo, shiny stuff. I'm a sucker for new shiny things.

Enjoy Sara, assuming you get some clearer skies soon.

Cheers

I was seriously considering treating my ED100 to a moonlite, but they seem to have absolutely shot up in price recently (£355 from £285 on FLO website).

Think you got in there at the right time.

...(£355 from £285 on FLO website)...

Ugh and half a grand for a motorised one. Has to be done, though...

[swag72]

Yep, looks like I got in just in time!! Oh, I keep looking at it!!! Nice and orange!!

We want pictures NOW!

Congratulations and remember to keep drinking plenty of water as all that dribbling will have consequences!

I was looking at them today - how they can justify the price I dont know! They are lovely though!

[A McEwan]

Blinky, having Moonlites on two of my scopes, the price justification is quite easy. Sorry!

that focuser would look smart on my 150mm frac:)

I've had cloud ever since it arrived!! It's looking good on the scope though!!
