Celestron C-6R 150mm refractor and GT mount.
Refractor is in great shape. Comes with 2 extra tube rings for mounting stuff. That is 4 total. You can see them in the pics.
Also comes with Thousand Oaks glass sun filter. $100 value.
Scope can use 2″ and 1.23″ eyepieces.
Goto mount works. Handset has issue finding targets. I replaced handset with a friends GT-5 and it worked fine. So the problem is somewhere in the handset not the mount.
Comes with small 12v portable battery also and a 6″ thousand oaks dew strap. I am keeping the dew controller and eyepiece strap for my next scope.

I use the scope at outreach events and it is a hit!!! People enjoy it. I usually manually track my targets.

I am selling because I really want the Meade LS8 for outreach. I will be using it with an Orion Starshoot cam and a 9″ video monitor. The refractor is great but the other scope is more automated and will do what I want with video for outreach…..
