Revelation eye cups

[Anthonyexmouth]

I've lost one of my eye cups from my revelation astro 25x100 with nebula filters and struggling to find replacements. The recess measures @29.5mm but can't find anything with a wing that will fit. The original is a hard plastic ring with clips, clips have broken on mine due to age. Did anyone know if spares are still available or if these are sold under another name.

I believe TS still do a version of this. Might be worth contacting Wolfi and see what he can suggest.

Thanks, is there a direct way of contacting him or just mention in the email?

Well, they got some generic round ones that might work but shipping is twice the price of the eye cups. was really hoping i could find some winged ones to fit. Bloody annoying as I use them a lot in the summer at night when imaging.

Well, I've emailed all the main players I can think of with no luck. Got some cheap ones from eBay but that are rubbish, keep falling off.

I’ve made rubber eye cups by rolling up lengths of bicycle inner.
