This Beginner Telescope Now Costs as Much as a Toy, Yet Comes with Two Real Eyepieces - Kotaku
"The Hexeum beginner telescope just dropped to $85 from $149 on Amazon, and brings real astronomy within reach of anyone curious enough to point it at the sky. This isn't a toy telescope that shows you blurry dots, it's an 80mm aperture refractor with actual quality optics, two real eyepieces and a Barlow lens that magnifies the moon up to 180 times."
"With an aperture of 80mm, it captures much more light compared to smaller and entry-level scopes which will directly translate into a view that is brighter and clearer of the night's starry objects. The focal length of 600mm at f/6.7 gives a balance between the wide-field views for star clusters and closer views of planets and the moon. Fully multi-coated lenses mean reduced light loss and increased brightness and clarity in the image so instead of a washed-out blob, you're actually seeing sharp detail."
An 80mm aperture refractor telescope is offered at a reduced price of $85 from $149, making accessible entry-level astronomy. The scope includes quality optics, two real eyepieces (25mm and 10mm) and a 3x Barlow lens that extends magnification to 72x and 180x. The 80mm aperture and 600mm focal length (f/6.7) deliver brighter, clearer wide-field and closer planetary views. Fully multi-coated lenses reduce light loss and improve image brightness and clarity for detailed lunar and planetary observation. The adjustable aluminum tripod provides stability to minimize vibration and maintain steady views during high-magnification observing.
