Telrad Finder

Description

The Telrad finder is the original and best selling reflex finderscope.

This simple, functional and accurate finder for a telescope is much easier to use than a conventional finder-scope.

It projects a set of circles 0.5 degrees, 2 degrees, and 4 degrees, that enable you to align your telescope on objects in the sky.

You can also use the circles to star-hop from one object to another. I.e. if a galaxy is 8 degrees away from a star, you simply count two 4-degree circles.

Two AA batteries will typically last 1-2 years.

Supplied with a universal base plate that can be attached via screw holes or the included sticky pads.

“We loved the view through the Telrad and everything worked without fuss” BBC Sky at Night Magazine

The Telrad finder is also popular with those working with stage lighting because, using a Telrad, follow-spot light operators can point with precision.
