Description

A good Focal Extender adds some real versatility to your telescope accessory line-up. First of all, it allows you to increase the magnification of any eyepiece with the same barrel size that you already own. In other words, 3 eyepieces offer 6 magnification choices with the addition of a focal extender. Secondly, most of the time, lower magnification eyepieces have better eye relief than higher power models. When using a focal extender to increase your magnification, you get to enjoy the generous eye relief of the lower power eyepiece, and that’s quite a bonus, especially for eyeglass wearers or for those with fast telescopes who can really push high magnification eyepieces. Remember, we make focal extenders in 2X, 3X and 5x models, so there is something for every style of telescope.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Hannah ★★★★★

Finally got to try this on my 1.25" eyepieces and the extra reach is perfect for lunar craters. Threads screwed on smoothly without any binding, which was a nice surprise.

Madison ★★★★★

The image through my 10mm eyepiece is noticeably sharper and brighter with this extender than I expected, and the threads on the barrel are smooth and precise. It’s a solid way to double my magnification options without buying a whole new set of eyepieces.

Nicholas ★★★★★

I like how easy this extender is to lock into place using the threaded collar—it doesn't slip on my eyepieces at all. It gives a solid boost in magnification without making the view too dim for lunar observing.
