For Sale: Celestron 8 inch NexStar Evolution

I purchased this telescope when I turned 80 with the idea of downsizing. I had been using a 15 inch Dob. Turns out I was a little optimistic about continuing late night observing at this age. It is time to sell this to someone who can get out and use it.

It is in NEW Condition. It has only been out a few times.

Package contains:

Celestron Optical Tube Assembly that is F10
Also is FastStar compatible that is F2.0
Celestron 1.25 inch Star Diagonal
Explore Scientific 2.0 inch Star Diagonal
40mm Plossl Eyepiece
13mm Plossl Eyepiece
StarPointer Red Dot Finderscope
Antares 7 X 50 Right Angle, Correct Image, Finderscope
Fork Mount includes 10 hour Lithium Iron Battery
Tripod that includes a built in Bubble Level
Accessory tray
AC adapter with USA, EU, UK, and AU plugs
NexStar Evolution Instruction Manual
AstroSystems Telescope All Weather Cover
Custom Made Transportation Boxes: Baltic Birch and Custom Foam
Celestron 8 inch Dew Shield
Hockey Pucks Mounting Pads
Two illuminated reticle eyepieces, one for the Finderscope and one for the telescope.
Also the original cardboard boxes.

The scope can be driven from the Hand Controller or your smartphone/tablet via Wi-Fi.
In addition the scope has Altitude and Azimuth Clutches.

The scope uses Celestron’s SkyAlign technology which requires only centering any three bright stars in the sky, without having to know their names. Once aligned it has full Go-To capability. Just pick an object on your smartphone/tablet or enter one on the Hand Controller and the scope automatically moves to point to it.

I am asking $1695 for the complete package. Call or text me at 218-839-3790 with any questions. Pick up in Wayzata. MN
