ALAN 42 DS Lithium Edition is Midland's best-selling portable CB transceiver, featuring digital squelch that activates automatically upon receiving an incoming signal, eliminating the need for manual adjustment.
A significant innovation is the integration of a 2800 mAh lithium-ion battery pack, ensuring a doubled lifespan and greater capacity compared to rechargeable AA batteries (1800 mAh). 

Skywatcher celebrates its 25th year with an instrument with an elegant commemorative design.
Equipped with premium Maksutov Skymax optics with exceptional contrast and sharpness especially in observations of the Moon, planets and double stars, it uses a compact table mount with automatic pointing via Wifi (from tablet or smartphone).

• 60th ANNIVERSARY LIMITED EDITION - Only 600 units will be produced, each with a unique serial number and certificate of authenticity signed by Celestron pioneer Alan Hale and CEO Corey Lee
• CARBON FIBER 8” EDGEHD OPTICAL TUBE - Carbon fiber minimizes thermal expansion with ambient temperature changes while EdgeHD optics provide superb visual and astroimaging performance free of coma and field curvature
• Retro details and all-new look with vintage-style badging and logos and a set of 3 interchangeable commemorative “spinner” emblems 
• Rechargeable lithium-iron phosphate battery with enough power for 10 hours of continuous observing 
• Built-in WiFi - no hand control required! Use your smartphone or tablet to control the telescope via WiFi
• StarSense AutoAlign automatically aligns your telescope in about 3 minutes
• Fastar compatible so you can image deep sky objects at f/2, often eliminating the need to autoguide or track on a wedge
• NexStar Evolution mount packed with convenient features including a USB charge port, adjustable lighting, precision machined worm gears for both axes, and more
• Accessories included: three quality eyepieces - 32mm (2"), 9mm and 15mm (1.25"), StarPointer Pro™ finderscope, StarSense AutoAlign, 2" Star Diagonal w/1.25" adapter, spinner emblems, and a certificate of authenticity individually numbered and signed by Celestron pioneer Alan Hale and CEO Corey Lee

There’s no greater freedom.

With your MH8 you can enjoy maximum flexibility, even in the wilderness. Thanks to the removable lamp head, it can be used as a headlamp or handheld light. The integrated lithium-ion battery can be charged quickly at home using the magnetic USB charging cable – or onlonger trips without access to a power source, you can use conventional disposable batteries. Get through long nights using the energy saving mode, or choose constant light mode for especially consistent LED power. And for sure you can choose between red, green or blue light.

WD-17 is the first harmonic drive mount based on Servo Direct Drive technology. It has only single stage reducer – backlash less strain wave reducer, and eliminate the transmission/assembly error from belt/planetary gear solution. That’s why we called “harmonic drive” mount, providing high precision guiding performance to you.
The mount weighs 4.3kg and carries telescopes up to 13.5kg without a counterweight. With the counterweight and counterweight rod (optional with M12 thread) the mount can also carry telescopes weighing up to 20 kg.
Optimize base can be smoothly fine adjusted with CNC fine tooth screw and gap control design, which make it much easier for polar alignment.

Ideal entry-level model with output of linear and equivalent horizontal range (EHR) from 10m to 1,100m / 1,200yds
High-precision rangefinding up to 1,800m / 2,000yds
Outstanding, easy-to-read LED display with automatic brightness control
Brilliant, clear image, high level of detail – even at twilight

The SONY IMX533 sensor has a diagonal of 16.0 mm and 3.76x3.76 micron pixels, the 1" format is a new, even more performing sensor, with 9.07MP and a resolution of 3008x3008.
With this sensor it is possible to photograph an entire cluster of galaxies and show the details of each one at the same time!
The camera also features dual-stage TEC Cooling with a thermal delta equal to 40° real degrees.
