Pourtant, nos tests internes rigoureux montrent que le ventilateur de refroidissement Celestron offre un meilleur flux d'air et un refroidissement global plus rapide par rapport aux concurrents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTélescopes compatibles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Le ventilateur de refroidissement USB pour télescopes Dobson est compatible avec le télescope Dobson StarSense Explorer 10\" et de nombreux autres réflecteurs Dobson et Newton tiers qui ont un support de ventilateur compatible (quatre trous filetés M4 x 0,7 dans un motif carré avec des trous espacés de 71,5 mm). ). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable id=\"product-specs-list\" class=\"table-open\"\u003e\u003ctbody id=\"spec-block-1\"\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003ePrise d'alimentation d'entrée :\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eUSB Type A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eLongueur de câble: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e120 mm (4,72\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003etension:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e5V CC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eActuel:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e0.21A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eEspacement des trous de montage du ventilateur :\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e71,5 mm (2,81\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eFiletages des vis de montage :\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eM4 x 0,7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Celestron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44967994655005,"sku":"CEL-94256","price":36.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/5280\/1565\/products\/Celestron-USB-Cooling-Fan-Dobsonian-Telescope-94256-1__31746.1651603605.1280.1280.jpg?v=1684347788"},{"product_id":"starbound-adjustable-observing-chair","title":"Chaise d'observation réglable Starbound","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Hauteur réglable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Fabriqué aux États-Unis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Coussin épais\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Pieds antidérapants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- more --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Faites l'expérience d'un confort inégalé lors de vos séances d'observation des étoiles avec la chaise d'observation Starbound.

Extender\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Tele Vue Eyeguard Extender is a purpose-built accessory designed to solve a specific problem for visual observers who do not wear glasses: managing the generous eye relief on modern Tele Vue eyepieces. By replacing the stock eyeguard, this twist-on extender allows you to set a precise, repeatable viewing distance. This eliminates \"blackouts\" and floating, ensuring you can comfortably hold the ideal eye position to see the entire field of view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrecision Twist-Up Height Adjustment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the core of the Eyeguard Extender is a simple, robust twist-to-lock mechanism. This allows you to raise the height of the eyecup significantly higher than the stock version. The practical benefit is the ability to brace the side of your eye socket against the cup, which provides a stable optical alignment without requiring you to hover your eye in space. Once you find the perfect height, it stays put, giving you a consistent experience every time you switch back to that eyepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComfortable Viewing and Stray Light Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top of the extender features a soft, pliable rubber eyecup that folds down, similar to classic eyepiece designs. This surface is comfortable for long observing sessions and effectively seals out stray light from your surroundings. By eliminating distracting glare from a nearby porch light or laptop screen, you improve your dark adaptation and increase your ability to perceive faint, low-contrast details on nebulas and galaxies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSeamless Eyepiece Integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Eyeguard Extender is engineered to perfectly match the threads and aesthetics of specific Tele Vue eyepiece lines, including the Delos and DeLite series. Installation is straightforward: you simply unscrew the original eyeguard housing and twist the extender into its place. This creates a secure, integrated unit that feels like a natural part of the eyepiece. The only trade-off is that it adds one more small piece of gear to your kit, but for those struggling with eye placement, the performance gain is significant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho Needs the Eyeguard Extender?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis accessory is specifically for observers who use compatible Tele Vue eyepieces without wearing eyeglasses. Eyepieces with long eye relief, like the Delos series, are designed to allow eyeglass wearers to see the full field. If you don't wear glasses, that extra distance can make it difficult to find the right spot. The extender physically bridges that gap, making the eyepiece far more comfortable and easier to use for extended periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"DAV-accordion-Q\"\u003eWhat problem does the Eyeguard Extender solve?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion-A\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt helps observers who don't wear glasses manage the long eye relief of certain Tele Vue eyepieces.
