Customer Review: Guide, measure angle of arc, and Az in one EP
Summary: 4 Stars
A very virsitle EP. Lots of fun for helping take better observation notes. Calculte size and distances with the EP. Can be used for drift alignments, but I prefer a simpler double cross hair EP for this.
The illuminator works fine, but is not a pulse type, though it can be screwed off and a pulse used instead. Optics are simple good old Meade EP optics, but then you use this EP for measurements more than observing fine details.
You will need to do a little math to measure the diameters of craters or distances with this EP. It can also measure the separation in minutes and seconds of double stars. Using the protractor built into this EP you can align it to measure angles (Az) from target to target, and with the linear scale distances. (you need to do the math based on the scope you are using the EP in). Has a very small double cross hair reticle in it also. So it can be used for drift aligning your mount too, or if you have the patience manual guiding. The EP does barlow well, with all of my 1.8X, 2X and 3X barlows.
This is not the EP you want for lining up you alignment stars for a Go-To scope, nor for manual guiding. The simpler double cross haired illuminated EP is used for that. It is a fun EP to play with, and can help you take much better observation notes.
