It is a little bulky but very lightweight; so don't be put off by its size! It allows 90 degree observation so you do not need to 'crane' your neck to use it. It is therefore very comfortable to use. Note: there is a 'pulser' add-on kit available that facilitates locating dimmer objects in the sky. This 'pulser' unit has good reviews world-wide so I am going to order one to try it out. A dew shield is also available. Update: Fitting the 'pulser' unit was very easy! Instead of using the included fittings I decided to solder the wires and use heat-shrink tubing as this provided a more secure and compact installation. The template for the drilling does need some modification but this is easy! Final note: Just see the five star ratings for the Telrad Finderscope! It is superb and easy to use; I do recommend the 'pulser' add-on if you wish to observe feint stars, constellations etc (see below). Spare base-plates for the finderscope are available via the internet so that you can use it on more than one telescopes! Very final update: The sky was clear tonight so I had a chance to test the Telrad with the 'pulser' unit. By pulsing the laser light it was very easy to centralize the image (in my case, Jupiter). I strongly recommend the 'pulser' unit. Review: Plasticy but works well! - PROS ~~~~~ + Far easier to see the target object than my red dot finder + Easy to fit with the sticky pads + Easy to adjust + Much easier to use CONS ~~~~ - Much bigger and bulkier - plasticy - Your probably have to make a small dew guard just for the finder, otherwise it become unusable in damp weather ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0039ZVJSU | | Brand Name | Telrad | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (68) | | Finderscope | Reflex | | Manufacturer Part Number | AC079 | | Mount | Equatorial Mount | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Telrad - **Finderscope:** Reflex - **Telescope mount description:** Equatorial Mount ## Images ![Red Dot Finder - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61cwprGpq4L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is an excellent and very simple to use finder scope *by E***R on 27 December 2014* This is an excellent and very simple to use finder scope.

I had to get this, or something like this, because the RDF fitted to my Astromaster 130EQ is, to be blunt, useless. The Telrad on the other hand, is brilliant. Fitting it to the tube with the supplied sticky pads was a piece of cake. Aligning it, in my case with a red light on a phone/radio mast a few miles away, was unbelievably straightforward. Once I had that done, the sky was my oyster – so to speak. Only this morning, I put Jupiter in the centre circle and bam…there it was in the centre of my eyepiece. The same with Mars and M42. Now I can’t wait for my Barlow and the couple of Plossls I’ve ordered so I can make the most of it! Surprisingly, it isn’t as big or bulky as some other reviews had led me to believe it would be, and to be honest I think it looks kinda cool. But the important thing is, it works. One of the best features is the ability to adjust the brightness of the target reticule, which makes finding faint objects much easier. There are also any number of star charts available on-line and free which allow you to find particular objects by aligning the reticule with well-known or particularly bright stars (Google “Telrad finder charts”). Being able to find things in the sky quickly and easily is a major boon for me, as the weather conditions where I live are notoriously fickle and can change in minutes. I have to make the most of the viewing opportunities that I get, and the Telrad lets me do just that. If you haven‘t got a Telrad, get one. It’s that simple. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/50044746-red-dot-finder](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/50044746-red-dot-finder) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
