Celestron X-Cel LX 2x Barlow lens

Celestron X-Cel LX 2x Barlow lens

The X-Cel LX Barlow lens is fitted between the telescope and the eyepiece, and it doubles the magnification of all your 1.25-inch eyepieces. The apochromatic optics produce a high-contrast, sharp image with virtually no chromatic aberration, making it ideal for observing the details of the planets and the Moon, for example.

The eyepiece stays firmly in place and remains scratch-free

The brass clamping ring at the top of the sleeve grips the eyepiece evenly when the locking screw is tightened. This means the eyepiece is not supported solely by the tip of the screw, which improves grip and protects the eyepiece barrel from scratches. The rubber surface in the centre provides a good grip even with cold fingers or when wearing gloves.
