Meade #918A 90 degree 1.25" Diagonal
Mirror diagonals let you view objects at a 90 degree angle from the direction the telescope is pointing. This means your viewing session will be much more comfortable - especially when the telescope is pointing straight up! The Meade 918A was designed to fit all 1.25-inch focusers and visual backs, and accepts any 1.25-inch eyepiece.
Note: If you are land and wildlife viewing, it is best to use the 45-degree Erect Image diagonal. This diagonal will give you an image that appears right-side-up, but reversed from left to right. The 45-degree Erect Image diagonal will display a correctly oriented scene in all directions (right side up, and left-to-right correct).

United StatesAs advertised it fit my telescope perfectly. I really wanted this to work as this was my late son's telescope and he had so much fun with it when he was alive. Now I can enjoy it and think of him as I do so.
United StatesI gave this as a gift to replace a missing diagonal. It fit perfectly and enabled him to use the telescope. He seems to like the quality of the mirror.
I'm concerned about this prism (made in China and the quality control behind it. The one I received with my ETX LS6 had large gap on the screw down cover and a rubber shim out of place.
