WTS - SkyWatcher 254 Dobsonian with SynScan GOTO - SOLD
Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2016 7:16 pm
Hi,
I have a 10" Dobsonian I'm willing to sell. The specs are as follows
Telescope model: Sky-Watcher 254mm (10") Flexible Dobsonian GOTO
Optical design: Newtonian reflector with parabolic primary mirror
Aperture (mm): 254
Focal length (mm): 1200
Aperture ratio: f/4.7
Resolving power: 0.5 arc sec
Limit value in magnitude: 14.2
Highest practical power: 500x
Focuser type: Crayford 2" with 1.25" adapter
Finder scope: 9x50 Straight-through finder
Telescope weight (kg): 15.0
Computer technology: 42,900+ Object Database with full Messier, NGC and IC catalogs
Mount type: Dobsonian with built-in Heavy-Duty Servo Motors
Mount weight (kg): 20.0
Power source: 12v DC or compatible External Power Tank (not supplied)
Recently I bought a C9.25 and that has replaced this as my big scope. This is quite heavy scope. you'd need a car/cab if you want to take it to remote sites. I'll throw in a custom made trolley for it as well which makes close-by observation easier. This is pretty new, I bought it from McGill for 2300 SGD about almost an year back. Willing to sell at 1500$. Scope and 9x50 straight through finder only. Power pack you'll have to supply. please PM me for more details and pictures. I'll try to post images here itself later tonight.
Thanks for reading.
