By Dr Mike
Most people really don't need this, but I purchased it due to some vision issues that are coming on as I get older. Being able to integrate images from both eyes can be helpful in improving apparent contrast and reducing eyestrain in older folks. However, buying this also means having to invest in an extra set of eyepieces, so this is a luxury and not a necessity. I suppose being a luxury could be said about having a telescope system in the first place! The bottom line is that this will not make a tremendous difference for most people, but it will make a difference for those people who feel uncomfortable or limited with monocular viewing. Having been an observer most of my life, I knew the time had come to buy this. The build quality is very good and I have no complaints. Be aware that you will have to rebalance your telescope when you use this, so while that is not a big deal, it does need to be done. Also this viewer can get into the way of your mount, so you may need to remove it before using a computer controlled slewing system. Otherwise it could possibly smack into your mount, which would not be a good thing.

By Werner R. Vielman
I am a novice nightsky watcher, I found that one eyepeaces strained my eyes very quickly, limiting the extended of my viewing sesions. I than order the Binocular Viewer and immidiatly felt the relief in my eyes especially since the eyepeaces can be adjusted to different widths. I highly recomended.

By Dave Cecil
I'm just a beginner with my telescope, so I don't know of a lot of the little things that experts say about this product. All I know it is great looking at the moon and planets with what amounts to a very powerful set of binoculars! I also love the soft rubbery feeling of the housing.
