Eyepiece holder for Dobson telescopes | Astrozap

In the dark, searching for an eyepiece on the ground, on a chair, or in your jacket pocket is difficult, and that’s why sometimes one falls into the grass. With this Astrozap eyepiece holder for your Dobson, you have your eyepieces at hand while you observe.

A Dobson telescope does not have a tripod with an accessory plate, so a separate holder is then useful. Check in advance where you can place it on your telescope so that it does not interfere with the movement. You can see which models are available at Dobson telescopes.

Always put the eyepieces in the same order, from low to high magnification; that way you’ll immediately pick the right one when you’re in the dark. How to choose which eyepiece to use when you need it, you can read in our explanation about eyepieces. After observing the lenses, put the caps back on your eyepieces; this will keep less dew and dust on the glass.

For storage and transportation a bag for eyepieces and filters useful.
