Meade LS Telescope

The Meade revolutionary LS ™ LightSwitch™ series of telescopes make use of state-of-the-art technologies such as GPS, LNT™ and ECLIPS™ CCD imaging to do what no other consumer telescopes have done previously: that is to take all the complications out of using a telescope.

Merely flick the switch and the LS automatically aligns itself. Astronomer Inside™ then takes you on a guided multimedia tour of the best objects in your sky. The aluminium mount is lightweight and portable, yet has a rigid structure with precision worm-gear drives for the ultimate in tracking and pointing accuracy.

All this combined with Meade's Advanced Coma-Free or Schmidt-Cassegrain optics provide the stargazer with the most sophisticated, yet easiest to use telescope ever.

Meade LS 6" ACF LightSwitch telescope. The award-winning 6" f/10 (1524mm focal length) and LS 8-Inch ACF (f/10)(2000mm focal length) powerhouse telescopes are feature packed and portable. Meade's Patented automatic self alignment system aligns with just one touch of the power switch. Just flip the switch and walk away. It aligns itself.

Meade's best Advanced-Coma Free optics deliver performance only seen previously in systems costing thousands of dollars more. With its standard Ultra High Transmission Coatings (UHTC) the LS gives you the sharpest, brightest optical system for its size available at any price.

The LS knows where it is in time and space even if you don't. Just flick the switch and be ready to explore the cosmos. Innovative technology is applied to make using the LS simple, easy and fun.

The ECLIPS color CCD camera (640x480 resolution) lets you capture images of your favorite celestial wonders and display them in real time on an external (user supplied) monitor or store them on a (user supplied) SD card so you can do CCD imaging your very first night out.

The included AutoStar III GOTO keypad computer has over 100,000 object library and guided tour functions.
