observing. The Plössls offer razor sharp views across the entire field, even at the
edges! In the 1-1/4" barrel diameter, they are available in the following focal lengths:

This 6 element design allows each X-Cel Eyepiece to have 20mm of eye
relief, 55° field of view and more than 25mm of lens aperture (even with the 2.3mm).
In order to maintain razor sharp, color corrected images across its 50° field of view,
extra-low dispersion glass is used for the most highly curved optical elements. The
excellent refractive properties of these high grade optical elements make the X-Cel
line especially well suited for high magnification planetary viewing where sharp,
color-free views are most appreciated. X-Cel eyepiece come in the following focal
length: 2.3mm, 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12.5mm, 18mm, 21mm, 25mm.

Celestron’s premium model for astronomy, using two red LEDs to preserve
night vision better than red filters or other devices. Brightness is adjustable. Operates on a single 9 volt battery
(included).
Filter, Light Pollution Reduction – UHC/LPR (#94123) –
These filters are designed to
enhance your views of deep sky astronomical objects when viewed from urban areas. LPR
Filters selectively reduce the transmission of certain wavelength of light, specifically those
produced by artificial lights. This includes mercury and high and low pressure sodium vapor
lights. In addition, they also block unwanted natural light (sky glow) caused by neutral
oxygen emission in our atmosphere.
Filter, Solar 114LCM (#94229) –
The AstroSolar
®
filter is a safe and durable filter that
covers the front opening of the telescope. View sunspots and other solar features using this double-sided metal coated
