starlight xpress usb filter wheel.

Hi All,

I am after the thickness of the starlight xpress usb filter wheel to try and work out my baader coma spacing with the asi1600. Have found the image below but can I check if it is 29mm or do I have to add the extra 2mm? I am sure the asi1600 is 6.5 so will either need 19.5 or 21.5 so will a varilock and just do not want to end up buying the wrong one.

 

cheers

My 7 filter wheel is 22mm and time you add the 2 parts its 29mm .

Yes they are 29mm

Great, Thanks for the info. Looks like I may need either this to add to my 14mm or one of these. Unless there is a smaller variable one that I have missed.

I have the Baader varilock. You cannot guarantee the spacing and 0.5mm can make a difference. You also get full 360 degree rotation with the Baader varilock. Great bit of kit.

After a bit of fiddling and a milk carton I think I have have it a 19mm. Maybe even 19.5mm.
