These are great finders, and a huge improvement over the straight-through finders that most dobs come with. Telrads provide setting circles to help navigate, and are comfortable to use.

Product Description

A finder for Dobsonians, reflectors, refractors, and Schmidt-Cassegrain by projecting a series of concentric red rings (4 degrees, 2 degrees, and one-half degree in diameter) on a tilted plate at the top of the finder. Similar to a red-dot finder, the circles appear to be projected onto the sky so you can move the telescope until the star or planet appears in the centre.

Required 2 AA batteries (not included)

Telrad viewfinder

I am very happy with the viewfinder I purchased for my Meade LX200 10” from Allstar. The gentleman who assisted me was very helpful

Must have

The telrad is one of those must have's when doing visual astronomy. The 3 rings in the reflex sight provide almost instant locating og the target. AA batteries keep it going for years, even when you leave the led on for a few days at a time. The sight transfers easily to another scope with an extra baseplate. I had one, but recently acquired another scope which was missing the telrad but had a base already installed. Sometimes I look through a couple scopes in a night... I didn't think twice about getting a second to always have one available for the 15" dob.

Telrad Reflex Sight Finder with Mounting Base

Quick shipping, great addition to my 8” Dob…….very easy to sight versus a typical spotting scope…..I paired the Telrad with the 4” inch riser base for ease of viewing.

Telrad, pretty standard bit of kit

I bought a well used and long in storage 16” Meade Skybridge that needed a bit of TLC. It came without any eyepieces and just the base of a Telrad. Allstar have an impressive selection of items stock, are semi-local and have a great website so I chose to pick up a selection of Baader eyepieces and a new Telrad. Unfortunately I am still rebuilding the scope and have yet to use it however unboxing came with no surprises as the design of the Telrad has decades of history. It’s a bit oversized and clunky but a proven design and well ingrained in stargazing lore. I have bead blasted and powder coated the telescope’s trusses and tube end rings matte black, cleaned the primary and replaced the secondary mirrors and rebuilt the base. I also picked up a shroud and end cap. With the ability to accurately aim this thing I am hopeful for first light between xmas and new year as some of these items are actually gifts to myself under the tree LOL.
