MarkD Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Hi I'm looking for a cheap barlow for use with a 200 Skyliner Dob.I've been trying to get hold of a TAL x2 but have been unable to find stock anywhere. Does anybody know of stock or if there is another barlow which is fairly decent for similar money.IS the skyliner one any good, the Sky at Night write-up on FLO suggests it's not too bad?Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Not sure what else is good but Beacon Hill Telescopes list them and as they are not so well known may have one available. Equally they may not, could be worth a call or email.Beacon Hill TelescopesThey are listed under eyepieces if you want to look.None of the other sites I have either do them or say call first, meaning I suppose - no stock.

Brinders Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 How about the Revelation Astro 2.5x barlow at Harrison Telescopes:- Revelation Astro 2.5x Barlow Lens 1.25"I have two TAL 2x barlows and the Skywatcher 2" ED. The Revelation trumps any of them and has given me the best views and images I have ever had of Jupiter in the few weeks I've had it. Highly recommended.
