Spectre Components

The QuInsight is a high-performance reflex sight for astronomers. It is the only sight that has been developed with ergonomics in mind. With 16 degrees field of view, a large achromatic lens, and a comfortable height off the telescope tube, getting your eye into the right place is very easy!

The Spectre spectroscope creates high-resolution colorful spectra of most all bright stars and shows finely detailed absorption lines. Unlock the Secrets of the Universe!

Customer Reviews

“…one of the most memorable nights of observing I’ve ever had because of the highly detailed spectra your Spectre produces. It’s been a long time since I gasped so many times while looking through a telescope.” – Howard Banich
