Spare Tyre Nebula Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Can anyone tell me which is the best Barlow to get for a Skyliner 250PX Dobsonian? As you know the choice is big...Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizibilder Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Good and reasonable priced? TAL 2x or 3x from FLO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmahon Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Televue.But, don't get a Barlow (unless you really need the diverging lightbeam), get a Powermate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brantuk Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Yup to all the above. Good vfm budget eps = Tals, best under £100 = Celestron Ultima or Orion Shorty Plus, next = Televue barlows, best = Televue Powermates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glowjet Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I agree with Brantuk, Tal, Ultima then Televue Powermates, have a look at SCS Astro`s web site or Telescope House, you can read the specifications on how these alter the light path in a different manner to barlows.
