1. Tele Vue 1.25" DeLite Eyepiece - 18.2mm:

Just as Tele Vue's Delos eyepieces were developed based on their Ethos eyepiece design advancements, DeLite is the logical step toward a smaller, more economical and lightweight version of Delos. Named DeLite because that best describes the viewing experience, the name also recognizes TeleVue designer Paul Dellechiaie's work.

The DeLite eyepieces have a 1.25" barrel and provide a 62° apparent field of view. DeLite eyepieces retain the pure optical quality of Delos along with 20mm eye-relief, unique sliding, locking eyeguard, and are Dioptrx-ready. All DeLite models are parfocal with Tele Vue's 1.25" Plossl, Panoptic, Nagler, and Delos eyepieces.

The DeLite series is a delightful addition to Tele Vue's visionary line of eyepiece developments

2. Tele Vue 2" 90-deg Everbrite Star Diagonal:

Whiter and brighter images. Simply put, that is the benefit of the Everbrite mirror coating. This exotic, dielectric, nonmetallic coating is 99% reflective across the full visual spectrum, resulting in the "whitest," most natural image available. The coating is painstakingly applied to Pyrex with a surface accuracy of a 1/10 wave flatness.

To ensure performance, every mirror is optically inspected under conditions far more critical than a diagonal mirror is ever used in typical telescopes. In this way, Tele Vue can guaranty that the Everbrite will permit your telescope to operate at its fullest potential.

The diagonal body is machined from solid blocks of aluminum. Permanent alignment is assured. The one piece body construction also means heavy accessories can't force the diagonal body to "unscrew" from the barrel as with other brands. The diagonal features a brass clamp ring, anti-reflection threads and 48mm filter threads.

3. Tele Vue 2" to 1.25" Eyepiece Adapter - High Hat:

This eyepiece adapter allows use of 1¼" eyepieces in any 2" focuser or diagonal.

The "high-hat" adapter is specially designed with a high rise head to keep Tele Vue Barlows and Powermate amplifiers away from the diagonal mirror. It features a brass clamp ring for secure, no-mar locking and safety undercut.

Note: Tele Vue purposely does not put 2" filter threads in 2" to 1¼" adapters. The reason is to avoid your getting upset when you insert a 1¼" Barlow and it crunches your expensive 2" filter. Safety first.

4. Tele Vue 3" Ring Mount - Satin # RS3-8003:

Clamshell-style rings that clamp onto your telescope to provide an attachment point for Tele Vue mounts. Felt lining on interior surface protects telescope finish. Rings include two mounting channels for Tele Vue finder accessories — such as Starbeam with Tele Vue base, Sol-Searcher, Piggy-Cam and others.

For TV-76, TV-85 or any telescope with outside tube diameter of exactly 3-inches. Finish matches focuser body and dew shield of current production telescopes.
