Baader Planetarium has added a unique innovation to the laser collimator.;
The Laser Colli incorporates a viewable etched viewing plate which can be
seen through the back of the laser collimator.
This permits
collimation of; SCTs and small diameter closed tube Newtonians,
instruments that were difficult or impossible to collimate using a
conventional single beam laser collimator.
Each collimator is
individually lathe aligned for accurate collimation.; The one-piece
die-cast and machined aluminum housing guarantees a stable alignment.;
The compact size and lightweight make the Laser Colli an indispensable tool
that is handy to keep in anyone's eyepiece box (thought we doubt too many
will find use as a keychain..)

Newtonians with the Laser Colli, please click the following link:;
