Accessories for iOptron GOTO
Mountings and Telescopes


OWL Services is now a dealer for iOptron of Woburn, MA. They have a VERY interesting series of GOTO mountings and telescopes. These are sturdy, very accurate, and very reasonable in price. Starting at just $242, these mountings provide a very inexpensive way to get into computer based astronomy. Although these mountings come with most everything you need to start, there are several recommended accessories that will help your observing.
