Customer Reviews
So helpfull to align the tracker!
Your laser kit has been amazing and a lot easier for me to find Polaris. Thanks again for a wonderful product.
The laser can be mounted easy on SkyWatcher StarAdventurer and allows polar alignement within less than a minute
takes a long time to be shipped
Hace que el trabajo de alineación polar sea muy fácil.
Recibí el kit láser MSM y me resultó muy fácil hacer la alineación polar en mi star adventure 2i y en mi skywatcher GTI.
Me lleva un par de minutos acercar la polar bastante con el láser y luego, un ligero ajuste para que Polaris quede en la posición correcta en el buscador polar.
Si usas grandes angulares, con la alineación, solamente del laser es más que suficiente.
Un artículo de excelente calidad.
Ordering was unproblematic, delivery was within 5 days in Europe, the goods were delivered as ordered and desired, everything works perfectly.
will order from MSM again.
I am new to using IOptron Skyguider Pro, and was having a hard time polar aligning. Then I saw this mention on Facebook, so I decided to try it.
It made it so much easier to get on to Polaris. Got exposures at 180sec!!
I have recently picked up a Sky-Watcher Gti as a more weightier mount for the back garden,
Normal sketch with these trackers I struggle to make that all important polar alignment.
As I already own the MSM Nomad as my lighter weight portable tracker, the Laser pen that comes with this option & simply screws to the back of the mount is amazing, so when I saw that MSM offers a laser pen for the Gti, I ordered it straight away along with a MSM lens warmer.
As with all my orders from MSM, it turned up in good time, with plenty of com’s to let me know what’s happening with the order & delivery,
It’s such a simple but very clever little addition to the laser pen, and the fact that you can just pop it over the Gti view finder, pinch the grub screw up and away you go, the green light shines through the Gti’s viewing tube and makes alignment so much easier and stress free, once Polaris is in the view finder, I usual hope into the SynScan app to make those all important adjustments with the time clock..
I personally wouldn’t be without it now, a couple of friends say I’m cheating, I can’t see the point in flaffing around in the dark trying to find Polaris.
I’m very happy to watch them fiddle, while I’m already set up and capturing the night sky targets . 📸🌟
Received the laser pointer very quickly, and have experimented to set up for night sky photography, i found the set up to be very efficient and was able to get a photo with very clear stars well worth the purchase.
Received the MSM laser kit and found it really easy to help with polar alignment, only took a couple of minutes getting it very near using the laser and a slight adjustment to get Polaris onto the correct position on the polar clock. Excellent quality item.
