Description:

Celestron CPC 800 8" GPS Schmidt Cassegrain telescope
Complete and in full working order
Currently retails at £2225
Bought new with only one careful owner in a smoke free home.

. Locates objects by name, self-calibrating using built-in GPS
. 40,000 object database with over 100 user-definable objects and expanded information on over 200 objects
. Finder scope
. 8 inch optics with StarBright XLT coatings
. Telescopically adjustable tripod with removable accessory tray
. Controller pad
. Power supply

Also included in the asking price:

. Celestron Power Tank (7AH) 12v supply to power the scope when away from home
(Retails at £58 - note that power is only needed for the GPS/locator function - not needed for manual use and I hardly used it myself)
. Celestron 1.25" eyepiece and Filter kit - five quality Plossl eyepieces, Barlow Lens, six colored filters, a Moon filter, in a foam-fitted aluminum carry case (retails at £145)
. 45 degree Erect image diagonal 1.25 lens holder to view images the 'right way up'
. Star-diagonal 1.25 lens holder for more comfortable viewing
. NexRemote telescope control software on CD and RS-232 cable included for advanced control of your telescope via computer
. NexImage camera and software on CD for taking photos (retails at £115)


Quick and easy set up but quite heavy (19kg) - so recommend that an adult would need to set it up for kids use

Not boxed

Collection only please, due to size, weight and sensitivity (this is a precision instrument)
