A great item to protect your Skywatcher Maksutov 180 (7inch) O.T.A.A well made padded bag that’s a perfect fit for upto a 7inch Mak, or SCT tube assembly. Easily unzipped with two zips, one along the length of the bag, another around one end making it easy to pack away a heavy, cumbersome OTA on a cold winters night when your hands are starting to feel the cold. You simply lay the OTA down on the opened flat bag and zip it up around your OTA. There’s an ample accessory pocket on one end capable of holding all you’ll need for imaging like cables, dew controllers, a mini PC like an ASI Air, or ASI mini, astro cameras, filter drawer, filters ect. In my case I’m storing a Skywatcher Maksutov 180 including a chunky Badder Planetarium Diamond Steeltrack dual speed focuser on the rear, and a heavier duty Losmandy rail and it all just fits in nicely without putting too much strain on the zippers. The idea is I’ll be keeping the OTA in the bag out my garage to hopefully reduce cooldown time when setting up and obviously to protect the OTA when stored, or in the back of the car.These are a great range of very sturdy padded bags for every use from carrying tracking mounts, tripods, and I’ve even got an entire OTA assembly like my Skywatcher Evolux 62 ED with ZWO electronic focuser, guide tube and ASI mini all ready to be safely carried, unpacked, mounted and plugged in ready to go in minutes. They even do a small round bag for Skywatchers 10kilo counterweights (just don’t drop it on your feet)!
Can’t fault the company very prompt with the orders, would definitely recommend them to anyone
