  • Celestron Padded Telescope Bag for 11" Optical Tubes

    This Celestron Padded Telescope Bag provides a lightweight, protective solution for your 11" OTA, weighing only 3.4 lbs while featuring 16mm thick EPE foam walls. With internal dimensions of 610mm x 362mm x 362mm, it is built from durable 900 Denier Polyester to safeguard your EdgeHD 11" or C11 optical tube from moisture and impacts during transport.

    900 Denier Polyester and 16mm EPE Foam Protection

    The case is constructed from heavy-duty, weather-resistant 900 Denier polyester to protect your optics from scrapes and moisture. The walls are lined with 16mm (0.63") thick EPE foam, providing substantial cushioning against the bumps and vibrations common during travel to a dark sky site. Inside, adjustable PP webbing straps hold your optical tube securely, preventing it from shifting.

    3.4 lb Design with Pockets and Straps

    At just 3.4 lbs, this bag is a significant upgrade over carrying the original bulky shipping box. It offers two convenient carrying methods: a pair of sewn-in handles for quick grabs and a clip-in padded shoulder strap for hands-free transport. An external zippered pocket provides dedicated space for essential accessories like eyepieces or a diagonal, keeping your kit organized and ready for deployment.

  • Will my Celestron EdgeHD 11" OTA fit in this Padded Telescope Bag?

    Yes, this bag is specifically designed for the Celestron EdgeHD 11" and all standard C11 Schmidt-Cassegrain optical tubes. The internal dimensions of 610mm x 362mm x 362mm (24" x 14.25" x 14.25") are sized to provide a snug and secure fit for these models.

    How much protection does the Padded Telescope Bag offer?

    The bag features 16mm (0.63") thick EPE foam lining its walls, which is designed to absorb minor shocks and prevent scratches. The exterior is made of a durable 900 Denier polyester fabric that offers weather resistance for transport in damp conditions. It is a soft case, so it is not intended to protect against major impacts or falls.

    Can I carry accessories in the Celestron Padded Telescope Bag?

    Yes, there is a hidden external zippered pocket designed to hold smaller accessories. You can easily fit a diagonal, a few eyepieces, a finder scope, or cables in this compartment, keeping your essential gear together with the OTA.

    Is the shoulder strap included with the bag?

    Yes, a padded, adjustable shoulder strap is included with the bag. It clips onto the case, allowing for comfortable, hands-free carrying.

    How much does the Padded Telescope Bag for 11" tubes weigh?

    The bag itself is very lightweight, weighing only 3.4 lbs (1.54 kg). This makes it much easier to transport your telescope compared to the original shipping box.

    Can I use this bag for transporting my Celestron C11 on an airplane?

    This is a soft-sided padded bag, not a hard case. While it's excellent for protecting your C11 in a car, it is not recommended as checked airline baggage. For air travel, a rigid, flight-approved hard case is the safest option to protect your telescope from the harsh handling involved in air transport.
