Bookings – Meade DS2080AT

The Meade DS-2080AT-LNT is a 80mm f/10 refractor with a goto mount and a red dot finder. It has a diagonal and 26mm(x31) and 9.7mm(x81) eyepieces; both 1.25″. It comes with a reproduction Meade manual and we’d recommend attendance at one of the Wellow observing sessions with a parent to learn how best to use the telescope.

Slightly more technical to set up as you need to use the electronic handcontroller but once mastered, it is a doddle. The sightscope has sensors in it to help align the scope so it removes the chores of getting everything level and pointing North. The telescope is a little flimsy with lots of breakable plastic and so the Goto is potentially not operational.
