Introduction

Polar aligning with laser pointer is intuitive, convenient and starter friendly, but it's only possible with Move Shoot move star tracker up to now. We want to share the pleasure of laser with other popular star trackers, namely, SkyWatcher Star Adventurer and iOptron SkyGuider pro.
Introducing Quick Polar Finder. Attach it to your equatorial mount, aim the laser beam for Polaris and you've got a fairly close alignment. For Astro-landscape photography, you are good to start shooting right away. For deep space object photography, simply take the Quick Polar Finder off and do an accurate alignment with the polar scope. In either case, you get to shoot the sky in much less time and probably save your back in the long run.

A thank you note

Glen Tillyard's 'loo roll' laser adapter for his SkyWatcher Star Adventurer inspired us to redesign our initial prototype. We appreciate his kind disclosure of this genius work!

Notice

  • Quick Polar Finder only works at locations where Polaris is visible.
  • Quick Polar Finder includes a 520-532nm laser pointer with an output less than 5mw. Please refer to local laws for regulation on laser products before purchasing.

For Skywatcher users, 

The adapter will fit the polar scope with a diameter of around 29.03mm. 

Compatibility: 

Skywatcher Star Adventurer GTi

Great tool for easing the polar aligning pains

This laser makes polar aligning so much easier! The green laser is much more visible then expected. All you do for aligning is point it at Polaris and it’s done in seconds. I’ve used this for wide-field Milky Way photos. If precision is needed you can easily remove it after it gets you in the zone and tweak it using the traditional thru the eyepiece method.

iOptron Skyguider Pro- MSM Laser Kit

Polar aligning my Skyguider Pro has been an issue for me. I have difficulty getting Polaris in the reticle in skies that are too bright as well as in much darker sites as there are too many stars that become confusing. I decided to give the Laser Kit a try to see how it might help.
The laser and provided threaded adapter were very easy to attach to the SGP. I went out on the 1st clear night to give it a try. The laser was very visible and I was able to very quickly align to Polaris. For this 1st trial, I did not go any further and just accepted this alignment. I then did 30 2 minute exposures with my Canon R6 M2 camera and a 50mm f/1.8 lens. I shot the Dark Horse region of the Milky Way as a test. The stars at the 2 minute exposures were very sharp. Next time I’ll try pushing the exposure time higher…
This has really improved the time to align as well as increasing my confidence level. The $$ spent on this were well worth it to me!

Ioptron Skyguider Pro Laser kit

I have purchased the kit because I find it cumbersome to polar align through the polar scope.
This is much easier and faster to do with the laser kit

Game changer!

I bought both the laser and the right angle viewer. Polar alignment takes me about 5 mins now! Absolute game changer for me!

Difficult to Align Laser

Nice idea but found laser not properly adjusted. Proved very difficult to adjust and align in tube. Still not successfully aligned and not satisfied with result. Also no instructions included.
