Hole too large for use without existing focuser ring 28 December 2023 | Mark
Good quality bracket nicely machined, but the 'spindle' hole is too large for the focuser so the original ring needs to be retained.
Easy mod for vintage C8 orange 24 July 2023 | Stefan
Excellent service from FLO as usual. The adapter is great for newer C8s as seen on YouTube. The hole spacing is wrong for orange tube C8s like mine. However, using a 50mm washer and 1" unc 5-32 screws to replace the shorter ones on the cap, I was able to make an adapter to go between the cap and EAF bracket. Works well.

With some enlargement of the central hole and cutting of the ladder part it fits onto the rectangular plate on my old C925 (2 holes drilled to fix it). Nicely made and machined and works perfectly.

Fits Celestron 8” Edge HD perfectly 24 March 2021 | Adrian
I was wary of buying this as the description notes that it’s not suitable for Celestron Edge HD ota. However, after asking round I took the chance and can say it fits like a charm.
Look up Astroblender’s YouTube tutorial. It’s excellent and describes the installation step by step.
So far I’ve only tested it on the daytime moon, but I can’t fault it so far. I’d go as far as to say it provides a more stable platform than the Celestron motor which it replaces, and was certainly easier to install. Excellent!
Just need a clear night now to try it out ‘for real’.
Fits easily to the EdgeHD 8 27 February 2021 | Nigel
Altho the description says not for EdgeHD it fits easily. Remember to leave the orange disc in-place. As I write this the scope is imaging and performing auto focuses with the AISAIR.
