This handy bracket lets you attach the Orion SkyLine Deluxe Green Laser Pointer (GLP), or other pushbutton laser pointers with a tube diamter between 10.3mm and 14.5mm, to your telescope for use as a high-tech aiming device.
The dual-ring ABS Orion SkyLine Deluxe Laser Pointer-to-Telescope Bracket securely holds the laser pointer and allows for precise alignment with the main telescope so you can use the pointer's laser beam to aim your instrument. The spring-loaded X-Y adjustment thumbscrews enable quick alignment of the installed laser pointer with the telescope. The Pointer-to-Telescope bracket's dovetail foot fits the finder scope base of most Orion telescopes. Additional dovetail bases are sold separately if you wish to add a laser pointer as a secondary aiming device, or for installation on other brands of telescope.
The lightweight GLP-to-Telescope Bracket can accommodate laser pointer devices with tubes ranging from 10.3mm (0.40") to 14.5mm (0.57") in diameter and at least 8cm (3.1") long. In order to function properly when installed in the bracket, the laser pointer must feature a power button that depresses; a small thumbscrew on the included On/Off collar can be tightened which keeps the button depressed to keep the laser pointer powered while in the bracket. To turn off the laser pointer when not in use, simply loosen the On/Off collar thumbscrew.
The Orion SkyLine Deluxe GLP-to-Telescope Bracket makes pointing any telescope super easy. After a simple initial alignment procedure is completed, the green beam shows exactly where your telescope is aimed. Just maneuver the telescope until the beam is pointing where you want to observe, and you're set. No need to crouch in odd positions to peer through a standard finder scope!
Bracket includes an On/Off thumbscrew collar for the GLP, which allows continuous On functionality while you align on your target object.
