Free shipping applies to almost all products. A few large telescopes and mounts are excluded from this free shipping offer. For these items, please contact us to obtain a shipping quote before you check out using the online shopping cart.
International Customers:
Free shipping does not apply to international orders. During check-out, you will be presented with several shipping choices and costs. However, the export of some items may be restricted outside the US due to size or manufacturer restrictions.
Please note that this is a 3d printed plastic part.
It has been documented that the GSO Ritchey–Chrétien telescopes (and associated brands - Orion, iOptron, Astro-Tech, Apertura, TPO and others) suffer from aberrant light directly reaching the camera sensor, causing reflections and the inability to take sufficient flat frames. These baffle extensions eliminate this problem.
NOTE: while the internal ridges should reduce light scatter, it may be necessary to paint the extension with a flat black paint. Further testing is needed.
Handle with care as the tabs can break.
BuckeyeStargazer's items are made of PETG plastic and can handle temperatures of up to 80°C (175°F).
