Is it compatible with my celestron nexstar 130?
1696567
Yes it is. Any telescope with a open space of 2 1/2" x 8 1/2" will work. I highly recommend.
1696568
I have it on my 20in Obsession scope. It should work on yours. Read G. Pugh answer for space needed. It does dew over easily though. Use a hair dryer or a dew heater electric small blanket/holder. Remember when not in use and left outside in the sun to put a sock over it to prevent damage to the redicule

Thank you for the info, I have had my celestron 130 about 4 years, love the telescope, hate the finder sight. Taakes a "watch" battery, and I am always having to replace it.
1696570
Yes, but you would 1) Need to remove your current finder scope and mount it in the same place, 2) Leave your current finder scope and mount it to the right of it, 3) Mount it below your focuser. (This is what I would choose.)...(jmo)
1696571
Will work fine. Just mount the bracket just behind your finder scope bracket. Remember with the included double stick tape, when you mount it its there to stay.
1696572
Yes, perfectly compatible. I find the batteries in my Telrad last for AGES. As someone else said, dew on the glass was a problem until I bought a dew heater.

It should work. I put it on a Celestron 127EQ with minimal mounting space. It appears by photos I have seen of your model telescope that it should mount without a problem. You might want to consider buying a 4" Riser.

It would work well, but it may be a bit large. I'd consider mounting it close to the altitude axis to keep the balance good.

If the 130 can accommodate 2" eyepieces they should work fine..I use mine with my 11" Celestron SCT and have been please with the quality of the optics. Since the 130 is a reflector, it doesn't make sense to use the diagonal but the eyepieces will make viewing much easier and the kit is probably less expensive that the eyepieces and filters would be separately. (a call to Celestron is probably a good idea)

It uses two standard spacing screws. So it should. Call celestron direct, they are real good on tech support.

The threads should be the same for all Nextar scopes as far as my research has turned up. Good luck to you. Celestron is a good company and their products are all top quality.

I'm sorry, but that u do not know. Go to the celesta on website. The amazon site shows bugs under the scope, maybe that will give you a better idea. At 150x magnification it's pretty good. My guess is that it will work. Good luck and please post your review for the next guy..

As Daniel said, it will be compatible with any 1.25" eyepiece. Looking up NexStar 4SE, I see it comes with a 25mm focal length Plossl eyepiece. The X-Cel eyepiece you've asked about is also a 25mm, so you probably don't want to duplicate the focal lengths (unless you're looking for a little wider field of view). I think you'll want to get a shorter focal length - 18mm, 12mm, 9mm, etc - to get more magnification. Divide the focal length of the telescope by the FL of the eyepiece to get the magnification. In this case 1325mm / 25mm was giving you 53X. I have several of these eyepieces and like them. As Daniel said, it will be compatible with any 1.25" eyepiece.

Yes it will - just got one and it works great. You'll need 2 of these: Celestron X-Cel LX Series Eyepiece - 1.25-Inch 25mm 93426 - although I guess you get 2 at any other magnification. Good luck!

These filters DO fit, as the 127EQ (I have one myself) has 1.25" eyepeices. The kicker though, is that our eye pieces do NOT have any threads (the eyepieces that come with the set). I've been told by Celestron to hold the filter between my eye and the eyepiece. Sigh. Best thing to fix that...get a different and better eyepiece.

It will work with any standard 1.25 inch eyepiece adapter or focuser, but i second the previous answer regarding tracking. I suggest downloading Stellarium (free planetarium software) and entering your telescope and the sensor specs into the telescopes plugins so you can see what the field of view would be in you 80 mm, and how quickly objects move out of that field of view. If it's too small, and you don't have mount that is tracking the sky, you might end up just being frustrated.

It should and the kit is listed as an accessory you may want to purchase: http://www.highpointscientific.com/celestron-nexstar-130-slt-computerized-telescope-31145?utm_source=google&utm;_medium=cse&utm_term=CEL-31145&gclid;=CKj5ve7Rz8ECFQcSMwodfG4A3Q

It should be compatible with any telescope that uses 1.25" eyepieces. It has markings for the focal length in mm, but not magnification markings in x (times). It's a very good eyepiece for the money, I was not disappointed with my purchase. It is heavy compared to non-zoom eyepieces, so if you have any balance or weight issues with your mount, factor that in.

Yes, it will work. I use the 2x lens in my full size scope as well as in my Orion go-scope. As long as the celestron uses the same width lenses (which it appears it does) they should work fine. Mine works great in my travel scope.

There is a Global AC Adapter For All Celestron Computerized Telescopes#18778 Power Supply. You can do a search using the name I provided.

The Celstron site - http://www.celestron.com/portal/skyq-link.html - lists the compatible mounts for this unit. It is not so much the telescope, but the mount used for it.

After reading the specs on this website, it appears that you will be able to use the 2 inch eyepieces with this scope. This kit comes with the 2 inch diagonal. If this can attach to your scope, it should work just fine. I do not have your model, but I do feel a little jealous. :) Best wishes. http://www.telescopes.com/telescopes/catadioptric-telescopes/celestron8inchcpctelescopetubeandmountwithtripod.cfm

I would think so, There is only 1 of these type stands from Celestron. But check their website!

The device should work with the 130 SLT. The mirror is not likely marked. Online articles illustrate how to safely put a calibration mark on the mirror.
