Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Charlotte ★★★★★

Finally, a tool that lets me align the primary mirror on my closed-tube scope without removing the corrector. The single beam mode paired with my existing laser works perfectly, and the fit is reassuringly snug.

Hannah ★★★★★

Took this out with my Sky-Watcher and the barlowed laser alignment worked perfectly on the first try. The TuBLUG's design makes it easy to insert into the focuser without any wobble, even in the dark.

Thomas H. ★★★★★

Finally got my laser perfectly aligned on my closed-tube reflector — this little adapter does exactly what it should. The single beam mode with a barlowed laser worked flawlessly, and collimation took me less than five minutes.
