Oklop Padded Bags for Astronomy Equipment

[FLO]

As requested 🙂 

We have significantly increased our range of padded bags for astronomy equipment. 

Oklop bags are manufactured in Europe to a high standard with tough water resistant polyester outer fabric, a silky smooth inner liner and dense 10mm foam padding. 

Other features include a removable shoulder strap positioned for balance and metal carabiners and attachment rings for durability and long life. 

Here's one designed for a SCT:

They look just the job for those of us who erm? somehow? accumulate numerous telescopes....I just don't know how it happens?! 🤔

They're decent bags for the price. I've owned the 'Bag for small telescopes' two years with no issues. The bag for 150mm reflectors did the job too.

Excellent range - they seem to have everything covered.....literally. 🙂

I have an Oklop skymax-180 bag, superb. IIRC it has hand-carry handle straps, but also satchel-straps to carry it rucksack-wise. Really really good.

Oooohhh, I'm pleased to see this. I have the deluxe bags for my Altair 102 f/11, my ED120 and one for my Vixen GP mount.

They are so much more convenient than the bulky and heavy flight cases I was using, the 102 f/11 is getting loads more use now it's easier to get out of the garage.

They are excellent quality and I shall be investing in another when I collect my TAL 100RS later this month.

Parallelogram mounts? Really? Where? 😄

~£330 for the items I want - and I'm thinking that's a good price and I should order now

We don't really need that new oven, the current one has served me well for fourteen years

[Steve Clay]

Which bag for an AZ100 head with dual saddle?

I’ve just took delivery of the EQ6-R-Pro bag. It’s a good quality item. Only problem is I had to spin the mount round  the RA axis for it to fit (I like to keep it setup ready to go on the tripod) into the bag It takes a bit of working out and head scratching to get the shape right to fit the shape of the bag 😀

Disclaimer: I helped Oklop guys re fit and finish of SCT8 bags (they used mine to check it as they are based in Serbia) and got a free refractor bag for my Tak in return (actually the one they at the time advertised as a tripod bag).

Irrespective of that, my honest opiniong is that their products are of very good quality and practical, too. Tak has been transported thousands of kms without problems and I also ordered a custom bag for AYOII mount. Cases would have been overkill in both situations.

The eyepiece bag is a good size.  I have got 11 1.25" eypieces and a TV powermate in mine.  I haven't started on filters yet.
