  • Losmandy Dovetail Bracket Kit (Long) for WandererCover

    Secure Mounting for Large OTAs with WandererCovers

    This bracket kit provides a robust and reliable connection between your WandererCover automated dust cover and your large telescope optical tube. Machined from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, it offers exceptional rigidity to support the WandererCover V4 Pro-EC or Wanderer Eclipse without adding significant weight to your imaging setup.

    It is specifically engineered for larger instruments, such as the Celestron EdgeHD and RASA series, that are equipped with a Losmandy-style dovetail plate. The bracket ensures your automated cover remains securely attached and perfectly aligned through a full night of imaging.

    Telescopic Design for Perfect Positioning

    The key feature of this bracket is its telescopic, adjustable design. This allows you to slide and position your WandererCover precisely along the telescope's dovetail, ensuring optimal placement relative to the front of your optical tube. This adjustability is critical for accommodating variations in equipment and achieving a perfect fit.

    This design is especially useful for imagers who use extended dew shields, where a fixed-length bracket would fail to provide the necessary clearance. The kit includes the standard screws required to attach the bracket directly to the threaded holes on your WandererCover unit.

    Long vs. Short Bracket Kit: Which One Fits Your Celestron RASA or EdgeHD?

    Choosing the correct bracket is essential for a proper fit. The primary difference between the Long and Short kits is their intended use case with Celestron's popular imaging telescopes.

    • Losmandy Kit (Short): This is the correct choice if you are using a Celestron EdgeHD or RASA telescope without an extended dew shield. It provides a compact and secure fit for the standard OTA configuration.
    • Losmandy Kit (Long): This bracket is specifically required when you are using an extended dew shield. Its telescopic adjustability provides the extra reach needed to clear the dew shield and position the WandererCover correctly over the front aperture.
  • What is the primary purpose of the Losmandy Dovetail Bracket Kit (Long) for WandererCover?

    The primary purpose of this bracket is to securely mount a WandererCover V4 Pro-EC or Wanderer Eclipse automated dust cover onto a large telescope, such as a Celestron RASA or EdgeHD, that uses a Losmandy-style dovetail plate.

    Will the Losmandy Bracket Kit (Long) fit my Celestron RASA 11 with an extended dew shield?

    Yes, absolutely. The Long kit is the specific model designed for this scenario. Its telescopic design provides the necessary clearance to work perfectly with Celestron RASA and EdgeHD telescopes that have an extended dew shield installed.

    I have a Celestron 14" EdgeHD but I don't use a dew shield. Do I need the Long bracket kit?

    No. For a Celestron EdgeHD or RASA telescope without an extended dew shield, you should use the Losmandy Dovetail Bracket Kit (Short). The Long kit would provide unnecessary length and might interfere with your setup's balance.

    What material is the WandererCover Losmandy Bracket Kit made from?

    The bracket is machined from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy. This material was chosen for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring a rigid and durable connection without adding excess weight to your telescope.

    Is the Losmandy Dovetail Bracket Kit (Long) heavy?

    No, it is designed to be lightweight. By using aerospace-grade aluminum, the bracket provides the necessary support for the WandererCover while minimizing its impact on your telescope's overall balance.

    Are mounting screws included with the Losmandy Dovetail Bracket Kit (Long)?

    Yes, the kit includes the standard screws needed to secure the bracket to the threaded mounting holes on the WandererCover V4 Pro-EC and Wanderer Eclipse models.
