Hello,
Just a short note to thank you for making this cleaning kit available
to amateur astronomers. I have used your Pegasus Kit for over a
month now and I need to say that throughout my twenty years of using
telescopes / eyepieces, I have not found anything that works as well
to clean optics. I'm especially impressed with how your cleaning
solution dries streak-free.
Clear Skies,
Ed

Just
a short note to let you know your system works very well. Recently
cleaned per the instructions my favorite ep--the Tak 50mm--and it came
out perfect. Now my window to the universe is shinning new again.

I used the cleaning solution I bought from you on the telescope
and I am very pleased with the results. Easy to use and no streaks.
Great product!
Thanks, Andy |

In the way of an endorsement, you may
remember that I ruined a $75 Schuler filter with a lens pen (or so I
thought). Last week I soaked the damaged surface of the filter with a
cotton ball soaked in the magic juice, and lo and behold the "stuff"
came off. The filter is almost as good as new.

Kit
arrived in great shape. Works great! Thanks for the
terrific product. ....I am sure I will be ordering refills at some
point. Unfortunately for you not soon. I try and clean my optics as
infrequently as possible.

By the way, I learned about your product from a couple of guys in my local
astronomy club in our [name removed] astronomy club (over 100 members). I'll certainly be glad to spread the word among our members and at star parties.
Regards,
Jay

just finished cleaning the corrector on my NexStar 11GPS using the
materials in your Pegasus kit. The corrector looks like new! I also
used the kit to clean my TeleVue mirror diagonal. I didn't even need
the rinse..... |

certain company purchases
our ASO cleaning solution for non Astronomical needs. Here is
what their tech support says about our product.

"Actually, we use
your
product to clean daylight readable LCD
monitor faceplates. They are used in local, state and federal gov't
applications as a display for various types of cameras. There can be no
visible dust, extraneous particles, etc on the glass from a viewing
distance of 24 inches. The front of the glass is diamond coated
but
the rear of the glass has a pH sensitive coating and can be damaged by
mildly acidic or basic solutions. We have tested quite a few
commercial formulations and have had streaking difficulties with them
all. Used properly we don't have any problems with yours."
"Thanks to Dr.
Sherrod and
yourselves, it's a lot quicker and
easier to get monitors back to the customer. We are very pleased
with
the product. "

"I saw the Telrad charts at a star party in
Chiefland,Fla and was very impressed. I am sure I will get much use
from them...........they are much more detailed and easier to use than
the old ones I currently have which only cover the Messier objects.
Thank you very much for a long needed product."

Here is a user
comment I got along with an order for the Globular Clusters of the
Milky Way TFC: (Oct 23, 2005)
Really looking forward to your globular cluster book. I have the other Telrad book, and really enjoy using it.
Cheers,
Vince G
When I requested his permission to quote that on my website, I got this in return:
As a matter of fact, you could add a comment from me that says: "anyone wanting a user friendly observing booklet with excellent finder charts of the most interesting deep sky celestial objects should have John's booklet with them. The charts are very easy to read with the important data right at your fingertips. The lamination insures you can use the booklet in the field with the telescope and not have a problem with dew. Even if you're using a Go-To system, a conventional finder scope, non-Telrad unity finder, or a pair of good binoculars, you'll find this booklet an essential item to have with you. It will really help you enjoy the celestial treasures of
the night-time sky. I highly recommend it."
Cheers & Dark Skies,
Vince

"I got your
telrad finder chart about six months ago. It is absolutely my favorite
and most used source for observing, in that, it has exactly the type of
information format in just the way I think about finding things in the
sky. In short, it is the most condensced practical reference I have
found (and I have looked at a lot, both software and printed)."

"Thanks for putting
this chart together. I've been using mine for a
couple of weeks now, and it makes finding objects easy. Much easier
using these charts as opposed to the charts that list everything in the
sky, including most that is too dim to see." "I love these charts
and highly recommend them."

"The 'Best' 300 TFC
arrived and it looks like it will be a very useful atlas. I like the size and the
convenience of having the four lists in one volume. Thanks for this
fine tool."

"I
have abandoned my 10" Meade Goto Cat for a completely non -goto 16" Dob
and I am really looking forward to the simplicity of searching through
the sky again. I hear that your star chart is the best thing
available." 06/06/2005 -- Tom B. |
