What is the cable material?
What is the temperature limit in a moving assembly?
I have made a short PUR cable through the mount.
I am using the cold temperature option of the 10Micro GM-3000 HPS.
Answer rated: 1It is also PUR Material, It works down to the specification of the Low Temp Upgrade of the GM3000 HPS mount.Answer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Jan 15, 2021 2:42:00 PMRated: 1

Baader MaxBright® II Binoviewer with case
I am considering buying the Maxbright ll (mainly because of the clicklock) and was wondering how much difference optically I will see in comparison with original Maxbright that I own. I use them on a Celestron 8SE with TV 2" everbrite dielectric diagonal. Thanks!
Answer rated: -2The main difference which you will notice will be at low magnifications: You can use eyepieces wih 32mm without notable vignetting by the larger prisms. In this regard, it is much closer to our Mark V giant binoviewer than to the smaller binoviewers. Especially with the Universal Alan Gee II - Telecompressor (UAG II) # 2454405, you can get larger field of views han with the old MaxBright or similar binoviewers.
At high magnifications with a smaller field of view, there isn't too much of a difference, except perhaps a little bit in direct comparison because of the coating.

2" BDS-SC Baader Diamond Steeltrack® Focuser
will this fit on a GSO RC8?
Thanks
Matt
Answer rated: -1The SteelTrack SC focuser comes with 2" and 3.3" SC-threads; as far as we can see (please check your teelscope's manual) the RC has got an M90x1-thread.
For the RT-version (for refractors), we do have RT-Adapter M90x1 Diamond Steeltrack® (Skywatcher) # 2957283, but it does not fit on the SC-focuser.
The SC-focuser has got a length of 93mm plus 30mm of travel;
the RT-focuser has got a minimum length of 78mm plus 80mm of travel.
So, you can probably use the RT-version # 2957210 with the M90-adapter instead of the SC-version.Answer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Jan 11, 2021 1:28:00 PMRated: 0

Baader1¼" Amici-erecting-prism 45° with 24mm free aperture
I'm sorry i forgot to included in my previous statement , i was using this setup for primarily terrestrial viewing if it makes any different at all
Answer rated: -1For terrestrial observations, you probably won't need the Barlow lens, as the Hyperion Zoom gives you up to 70x, which is in the range of the highest magnifications which are usually permitted by the turbulences in our atmosphere. The higher magnifications of the Barlow can only be used on days with steady, clear air (this is less of a problem when looking into the stars instead of through the thick layers of turbulent air close to the Earth's surface).Answer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Jan 11, 2021 1:40:00 PMRated: 0

Baader1¼" Amici-erecting-prism 45° with 24mm free aperture
I am working with a SV-80mm f/6.9 scope, i already purchased your mark iv 8-24mm zoom eyepiece. My question is will this diagonal, and your Hyperion® Zoom Barlow Lens set up work with my scope and or will i need any additional accessories for it thanks again for helping out.
Answer rated: 0If the telescope has got a standard 1.25" eyepiece clamp (the Hyperion eyepiece should fit into it in 1.25" configuration) and if it hasn't got an extremely uncommon back focus, then this combination will work.Answer by: Baader Web Team (Admin) on Jan 11, 2021 1:37:00 PM
