Levenhuk Ra 150N – 153/1215 Dobson

The six-inch with the neat equipment

The Levenhuk Ra 150N is a user-friendly yet serious six-inch Dobsonian with a parabolic mirror. The 153mm aperture and 1215mm focal length (f/7.9) deliver sharp, high-contrast images of the Moon, planets, and bright deep-sky classics. The equipment is a step above entry-level: two Plössl eyepieces and a 6x30 optical finder.

Why the Ra Line Stands Out

The Ra series combines the proven long tube formula with neat finishing and solid accessories. The 25mm and 9mm Plössl eyepieces deliver 49x and 135x, with sharp image edges thanks to the forgiving f/7.9. Realistically usable up to approximately 306x.

For whom yes, for whom no

Good for: The beginner who wants solid eyepieces and an optical viewfinder right away, without having to upgrade immediately. Not for: Those who choose purely based on price; the GSO 152/1200 offers the same optical class more affordably.
