T-2 (M42x0.75) Locking Ring with Lever

The T-2 (M42x0.75) Locking Ring with Lever allows for the direct attachment of the MaxBright® II binoviewer to all Baader T-2 star diagonals, providing the shortest possible adaptation without the need for a Glasspath Corrector. This setup is particularly beneficial for telescopes with long focal lengths (f/10 or slower), where attaching the binoviewer directly to the star diagonal minimizes the overall length and ensures a compact, secure configuration—ideal for public observatories.

Key Features:

• Direct attachment of the MaxBright® II to Baader T-2 star diagonals for a short, secure connection.
• Perfect for telescopes with long focal lengths (f/10 or slower), reducing overall length and eliminating the need for a Glasspath Corrector.
