5.0 out of 5 stars Reflector Collimation Cap - simple and fast, August 16, 2010

This item should be standard equipment with every reflector telescope! Forget expensive laser collimators - they too are occasionally misaligned. Astronomers were collimating their reflectors by hand long before lasers were even developed. Do it fast and simple with this tool that also doubles as a focuser cap.

Very pleased with product. Used in conjunction with the Celestron collimation eyepiece, you can collimate your newtonian in just a few moments in the field, even in extreme cold (I proved that this Saturday at 10 dedrees F, with a -3 degree windchill) If you can use it quickly in those conditions, it's good!

There are more expensive and better ways to accomplish collimation, but this is a cheap and dirty way to go about it.
