Paired with your 6 or 8 inch RC telescope, the TPO focuser collimation ring allows the focuser and camera to be tilted ensuring they are square and parallel to the focal plane. Stars are perfectly collimated evenly across the entire field of view and slight errors that might be due to alignment of the baffle tube and focuser are easily corrected for superior imaging performance. Push/ pull adjustments are quick and easy to make in the field, the moment they are needed.

Does the job.

The Collimation Ring works well for adjuscting the tip and tile of my optics train. It would have been beter if it came with some instructions - it was necessary to partially disassemble the unit to figure out how to use it. There are two pieces that are held together with three allan screws spaced 120 deg apart. Between the two halves of the unit are three ball headed, spring loaded supports spaced half way between the adjustment screws, that the camera side half pivots on. There are two allan screws next to each adjusment screw to lock the halves down after the unit has been adjusted. In addition to some form of instructions it would have been nice if the unit came with two allen wrenches (for adjustment screws and a smaller one for the locking screws). I would have been willing to pay the extra dollar or two that the wrenches and instructions would have cost. The assembly and the RC scope are the only items I have bought that haven't come with equired allen wrenches and instructions either with the unit or on their website

Perfect collimation with RC.

Finally able to get concentric circles with my Howie Glatter through my focuser. Racked in or out. Could not achieve with standard collimation screws/procedure or bobs screws. Allows the sight title of focuser to perfectly align to primary.
