Optec Inc. FocusLynx Precision Temperature Probe Kit: Enhanced Telescope Focusing Accuracy

  • Ambient Temperature Measurement: Designed to measure ambient temperature changes, enhancing the accuracy of telescope focusing.
  • Direct OTA Temperature Reading: Ideal for astronomers who prefer temperature measurements directly at the telescope Optical Tube Assembly (OTA) for more precise data.
  • Compatibility with QuickSync Motors: Complements the QuickSync motors' on-board temperature probe by offering an external measurement option.
  • Essential for Original MicroTouch Motors: For users of original MicroTouch motors lacking an on-board temperature sensor, this kit provides the necessary sensor for Temperature Compensation (TC).
  • Improves Focusing Precision: Helps in achieving sharper focus by compensating for temperature-related expansion or contraction of the telescope structure.
  • Easy to Install: The kit is user-friendly and can be easily integrated into existing telescope setups.
  • Suitable for Various Telescope Models: Versatile enough to be used with a range of telescope models that benefit from temperature-compensated focusing.
  • Enhances Astrophotography Results: Particularly beneficial for astrophotographers seeking the highest level of focus precision in their images.
  • Professional Grade Accessory: An essential tool for both amateur and professional astronomers who require accurate temperature data for optimal telescope focusing.
  • External Temperature Probe Kit: Includes all necessary components for external temperature measurement, ensuring comprehensive temperature monitoring capabilities.
