Article on Optec Alnitak Flip-Flat Motorised Telescope Cover

7/2/2017

0 Comments

 
After having problems with my Gemini Telescopes SnapCap on my remote setup at e-EyE, I decided to replace it by the much-simpler Optec Alnitak Flip-Flat. This particular product, though expensive, replaces the awkwardly-wired SnapCap with a single USB connection that covers both the power and the control.

Moreover, given my choice of SnapCap, having this new product means my flat field panel is now integrated into the motorised telescope cover (and the software provides brightness control too). 

If you would like to read my complete review of the Optec Alnitak Flip-Flat, please follow this link to the article itself.
