The Flexi-Mate is one of our best selling accessories for Meade ETX telescopes. The Flexi-Mate has been developed to make your Meade ETX telescope easier and more enjoyable to use. When viewing overhead, Flexi-Mate allows full and accurate focussing – which would otherwise not be possible. The Flexi-Mate minimises the vibration normally caused by touching the telescope to focus it, making all focussing simple and precise, even with gloved hands on a cold night. It also speeds up refocusing after changing eyepieces, and greatly improves precise focussing for astro-photography. Simple to fit in two minutes – full instructions included.

Our Easy-Fit flexible dew shield will combat dewing and keep stray light at bay. The shield features black fibre flocking on the inside for improved image contrast. The shield slides along the tube for storage or will undo and store flat if required.

To fit Meade ETX70AT.

This complete temperature-controllable anti-dew system is the best way to keep dew away from your telescope optics all night long. The kit comprises a controller with six temperature-control steps and a lens cell heating tape. The controller needs to be plugged in to a suitable 12V DC power supply available separately. The tape is plugged into the controller and is then simply attached around the front of the optical tube with an elasticated Velcro strap. When assembled the lead length is 2.8m (110”). The kit also includes a splitter to allow the use of an eyepiece dew heater (AC350 purchased separately). The controller can be plugged into the Portable Astro Power Station (see AC338) and at a typical low to mid-range heat setting the Power Station would keep your optics dew free for over 8 hours!

These solar filters have been designed to allow direct viewing or photography of broadband solar phenomena (sunspots, faculae etc). The filter is manufactured from glass and has a multi-layered metalised coating applied by a process of evaporation in a vacuum chamber. For safe and secure observation the glass filter is sealed in a high precision black anodised aluminium cell that screws directly onto the thread on the front of the telescope tube. For safety the glass filter is held in the cell with precision machined screws and not glue (or tape!) as in some competitor products. Solar observation can be dangerous - read enclosed instructions carefully.
