StellaLyra 8" F12 CC complete setup

Recommended Posts

Due to very unforeseen circumstances im having to let go the planetary/lunar setup ive been trying to build up over the past year, all items other than the scope are less than 12 months old, most just a couple of months and a few not even used yet, the scope is 13 months old, i have priced to sell as a complete setup for now but do understand that most of you guys will already have some if not most of the items already so i am willing to split but will price the items accordingly only after whoever buys the scope has had their pick, sorry for the hassle and time this may cause but if the scope doesnt sell it would be useless to me at least without the other items, the scope would need to be collected from Ripley Derbyshire DE53 5 mins from J28 of the M1

All is in fantastic condition and boxed except for the scope, the scope itself has had very little use, an indepth description of all the items can be found on the First Light Optics website where it was all purchased from, i will try and link each item to the site.

The scope really is a beautiful piece of kit, a credit to FLO, its fantastic to look through, it comes as i received it with the 3 extension rings.

The auto focus has been attached using a diy bracket that i have made for the focuser, it works flawless but can easly be removed if not required and the focuser thumbwheel replaced, the scope and all the items fit into the custom case which is also supplied, even though this is great for storing everything together and for back of the car transport i really dont think its suitable for carrying about, the scope and supplies can get heavy.

£920 for the complete setup, you can work out your savings on the FLO site 🙂

CoC or bank transfer welcome

Any more infomation you require please ask away and thanks for looking.

A quick update, the scope sale has now been split, Im looking for £640 for the scope and Skywatcher focuser although this can be removed if you wish and the sale reduced to £600, i will throw in the case to aid with transport.

NOW SOLD

I'm glad you've sold it Wayne, I kept looking at it but never managed to scrape the money together. It seemed that every time I got near to having enough money something else cropped up, the washing machine caught fire, the kitchen taps broke etc.

Cheers Dave, it's a bit wounding now it's on the way as it was always something I was after but like you say things happen...it was between this and a big frac that pulled the strings and when this came out I jumped on it probably sooner than I should of done...I'm still looking for a  frac though..🤫..

The Stellamira F10 is tempting, and I get to keep the eyepiece, barlow and diagonal for it too...

I like the look of the new StellaMira 125mm ED Doublet f/7.8 but too pricey for me at the moment. I am thinking of a Vixen A80MF Achromatic Refractor for a new grab and go scope.
