Celestron 2X - 1.25' - X-Cel LX Barlow Lens

Really easy to use perfect fit, purchased this Barlow to magnify my eyepieces 2x, crystal clear images, great for attaching a DSLR camera to your scope.

Use this between my Celestron 6” scope and their adjustable eyepiece. Works great when I need extra magnification!

My wife and I are new to astronomy and were looking to find a way to get a better image on our telescope. This fit bill very well, it magnified the image of Saturn so that we could see the ring better. I highly recommend this well built optic.

Works well and is well made. I think I prefer the 2X Barlow over the 3X because everything gets magnified, including any problems. Of course I knew that going in and bought it anyway. Generally, a good addition to my lens set.

I was hoping this would give me great views of Jupiter and Saturn like shown in the photos of some other reviews. Sadly, it can't make up for poor seeing conditions and the lack of aperture on my telescopes, so I have yet to get view as good as those. None of that is the fault of this Barlow, however. The lens seems well-built and solid and worked with all of my eyepieces. I got mine for $80 which was a good deal. Looking at it now at $120 it may not be as good a deal anymore. 5 stars.

Opening) was suprised when I removed it , it was bigger than I imagined. (1st impressions) it appears first impressions was a factor when designing it . Looks good , feels nice . (Utilization) put it in , took a look and was satisfied but just barely. It was humid out so I figured the moist air diminished the quality of what I saw . Well tonight is super clear and went out to look up and thought to compare the stock 3×barlow. When I swapped for the new one I couldnt believe how the new barlow was that much better than the stock barlow. They are both 3×'s and I figured the knew it would look better but it appeared to be 2-3×'s higher magnification and exponentially higher clarity . Im not just satisfied im blown away as well , pisst off is also a good description for the simple fact that the stock barlow is an insult , so celestron if u read this throw that crap away and give a better barlow please

Perfect!! excellent value, very clear

Only thing is it’s hard to find objects when you’re super zoomed in - but yeah probably better to get this than an eyepiece that is too powerful for your aperture. Recommend , but take the time to get used to finding objects before showing it off. Fit - Percect. Magnification- Excellent. Brightness - Great. Value - definitely
