Pack SkyWatcher Dobson Traditional 8" 203/1200 SkyWatcher Telescope with a personalized course of initiation

IN TELESCOPIOMANIA WE OFFER YOU NOW TOGETHER WITH YOUR TELESCOPE, OUR PERSONALIZED COURSE OF INITIATION IN ASTRONOMY AND USE OF YOUR MANUAL TELESCOPE.

DOBSON mount telescopes are popular with amateur astronomers and telescope manufacturers for their simplicity.

SKYWATCHER DOBSON telescopes with their patented tension adjustment clutch allow the user to increase or decrease the tension to increase or decrease the friction of the tube to the side of the DOBSON mount.

By having this tension adjustment, the optical tube does not need to be well balanced to stay fixed in a certain position.

The tension adjustment can be tightened just enough to keep the tube in a fixed position but can also be moved at any time to readjust the position of the tube relative to the observed object.

If desired, the tension adjustment can also be tightened to the maximum to lock the tube in a certain position.
