Moonlite CS2 Focuser for Mewlon Reflector with Hi Res Stepper Motor and Hand Controller

Key Features & Specifications:

The MoonLite CS2 Focuser is a premium dual-speed Crayford-style focuser, specifically configured for Takahashi Mewlon reflectors, delivering ultra-smooth, backlash-free operation ideal for visual astronomy and high-precision astrophotography. This package includes the High-Resolution Stepper Motor and MoonLite Mini V2 Hand Controller, making it a fully motorized solution for fine electronic focusing — whether you're in the field or remotely imaging from an observatory.

CNC-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum, the CS2 offers unmatched mechanical stability and load capacity. Its large 2" drawtube glides smoothly under heavy imaging payloads without flex or shift, ensuring precise focus even with long focal length optics like those found in the Mewlon series.

With a modular design and multiple adapter options, this focuser installs cleanly to the Mewlon rear cell, improving usability while preserving collimation and optical integrity. The included high-res stepper motor pairs beautifully with automation software (ASCOM/INDI compatible) or can be controlled manually using the included Mini V2 controller.
