Instruction Manual
I first saw this device on an internet sales site back in the Spring and was somewhat wary. However, needing a replacement adapter for the cheap plastic version that fell apart (sorry, Celestron, it's crap) FLO advised that the Tridapter was genuine and they would have it in stock later in the year. Same price as a certain online retailer, so ordered from FLO as the customer service is excellent. Not disappointed. It is well made and robust and fits all my eyepieces, which is more than can be said for my previous adapter! My current mobile phone case has a magnetic block in the middle of the back and a rotatable ring as a stand attached to it - this makes it awkward positioning the phone on the Tridapter, just takes a little more adjustment to get it fitted and aligned. Only real complaint is that FLO stuck a misleading label on the box saying "may come with clouds" - No! It DOES come with clouds, no "may" about it!
For some reason Leica don’t make a phone adapter for their Televid scopes. Meaning having to resort to third party suppliers. The adapters I’ve tried previous got sent back as they were not fit for purpose and required removal of the phone case which was a pain.The Shoot Move Shoot adapter is the best I’ve had, though there are obvious improvements that could be made to the design to improve repeat placement of the phone and rigidity.In all a good buy and better that the rest.
