Rigel Systems Aviation / Astronomy FlashLight - Skylite
Best Flashlight for Night Nursing
We have critically ill children. When we need a little extra light to check on them and not disturb their sleep this flashlight is most useful. For the reasons this is a great astronomy flashlight it is great for doing little night tasks on our littl...

Rigel Systems Aviation / Astronomy FlashLight - Skylite Mini
Very Capable
Works as advertised. I have one small comment though, the last one I owned had a “hitch” in the potentiometer that eventually failed. I still liked the size of the light so I bought another one but I see that there has been no improvement in the ...

Unihedron Sky Quality Meter with Lens - Narrow Field of View # SQM-L
Sky Quality Meter
Seems to do the job it was built to do. The display is bright and easy to read. Simple to operate, only one button. There is no built in memory to store readings, date, time, etc. It displays the light reading and temperature only. I have only had a ...

Unihedron Sky Quality Meter with Lens - Narrow Field of View # SQM-L
Not a Good Buy
It is just a toy and it is too expensive for the function. I would buy it for $25 or so but not for this price.

Lunt Solar Observer Hat with Neck Flap and UV Protective fabric # HAT
Valuable observer accessory
Besides keeping direct sun off one's head and neck, the clip-on secures it to a shirt so the hat will not blow off in a breeze. The best is the zippered pocket in the neck drape! One can place a cold wet towel or ice wrapped in a towel for comfo...

Celestron Night Vision Astro Flashlight # 93588
Telescope Viewing
This light is perfect for looking through your telescope without interfering with your viewing. You can look at star charts for star gazing and see what you are doing in darkness. I highly recommend this product!

Unihedron Sky Quality Meter with Lens - Narrow Field of View # SQM-L
Simple, Inexpensive, and Accurate
There's not a lot to say about this product: it's Simple to use (just point it upwards at the sky overhead), Inexpensive (I think that I paid about $ 125.00 for it), and Accurate (from my experience it does an outstanding job of metering th...

Nice addition to my imaging activities
I image both from a red zone at home and white zone in NYC, and I am particularly interested in refining techniques for dealing with light pollution. This meter allows me to be much more precise regarding what works and what doesn't. It is certa...

Baader Q Turret - Quadruplet 1.25" Eyepiece Revolver # BQT 2957010
Good design
Great balance between functionally and weight. I’ve no complaints at all about the product. I would hav even concerned if it was heavier, to be honest.

Unihedron Sky Quality Meter with Lens - Narrow Field of View # SQM-L
El viejo in Oregon
Wonderful instrument to compare dark sites. Very steady, quick, and point-able to not get a false reading from trees or overhangs. I found out that the skies over my house aren't so bad after all.

Seems very well made. Dimmer has a nice wide range. Did not like the way the neck cord clips to a rubber o ring. Nice light.

Works great. The only thing I would suggest is to include a wrist strap.
