1.25" to 2" adaptor available?


Recommended Posts

I have an Ethos 13mm and a Nirvana 28mm which are both 2" EPs and I use them most of the time.

I've just purchased a 7mm WO UWAN which is a 1.25" EP and wondered if it's possible to buy an adaptor to make it fit a 2" focuser.

It's a pain switching the 2" and 1.25" focuser parts all the time and it would be much easier to slot my new EP into the 2" hole!

Is it possible and anyone know what I would need?

You need one of these:

Antares 1.25" to 2" eyepiece adaptor with filter thread

Although the same retailer has them at a lower cost in their "astroboot" section as has been said. Get one with a brass comression ring fitting if you can then it won't mark the eyepiece barrel. You can leave it permanently attached to the eyepiece for convenience.

Watch the balance of your dob when you put the 28mm Nirvana in - that's a heavy old eyepiece !.
