#SFM1 Starfinder Mount with Base Rail
The StarFinder Mount is the third generation in finder devices.
To aim your telescope at an object, simply press the laser button
and move the telescope until the beam points to the target.
Bingo, your scope is aimed right where the laser points! When
mounted on a GOTO scope, the Starfinder shows exactly where
the scope is pointed. When someone asks "where are you looking?"
the answer is available at the push of a button!
The StarFinder Mount attaches to your telescope and securely
holds your laser pointer. Adjustment screws precisely align
the laser for pinpoint aiming, and the laser's power button is
accessable for easy operation. Durable lexan tube, low profile
design and extended dew shield keep your laser pointer secure
and out of harm's way. The mount is even sturdy enough to use
as a handle for aiming your Dob.
The new current version has an inside diameter of 1", increased
from 3/4" in the old version. Overall length is 7 inches.
Mounts on your telescope with the supplied 3M VHB adhesive
tape, or with supplied 8-32 hardware, has a 1/4-20 tripod mounting
hole, and also mounts on ScopeStuff universal mounting rails.
The StarFinder Mount is removable from it's base for storage or
for use on multiple scopes, and extra universal bases are available.
Works with green laser pointers less than 3/4" in diameter.
(Laser pointer and telescope not included.)
