Unihedron Weatherproof Housing for Sky Quality Meter
Unihedron SQM housing
Super product that keeps the SQM dry and clean. The housing has a reasonably tight grommet at the bottom for a USB cable. I added a piece of tape around the circumference in order to make the top cover fit a little more snugly.

Unihedron Tripod Adapter for Sky Quality Meter Model SQM
I can’t believe this was
I can’t believe this was made on a 3D printer! It fits perfectly On the SQM. It certainly worth the money. If you plan on mounting your meter you absolutely need this.

Tight and Bright
This laser produces a fine, green beam that works extra good in area's with light pollution. Also, having 2 buttons, for continuous beam, and flash beam, really makes initial alignment easy. This laser is worth every penny. A very good buy !...

Celestron Night Vision Astro Flashlight # 93588

This light is fine for the price and does a good job of preserving night vision at the telescope or binoculars. The variable brightness works well and you can reduce the light output to a good low level as needed. The size is good and seems to be wel...

Sky Quality Meter
I've always wondered about the sky brightness above my home observatory and now I know. My sky quality on a clear Moonless night is 20.45. Decent for astrophotography.

Meade 5mW Green Laser Pointer # 608002
Poor Design
Mine also has the poor connection issue. If you shake it, and put the batteries in and out a few times, it occasionally works. My cat has a $3 keychain laser pointer that works much better is every regard.
