Please note that this is a 3d printed plastic part.
It has been documented that the GSO Ritchey–Chrétien telescopes (and associated brands - Orion, iOptron, Astro-Tech, Apertura, TPO and others) suffer from aberrant light directly reaching the camera sensor, causing reflections and the inability to take sufficient flat frames. These baffle extensions eliminate this problem.
NOTE: while the internal ridges should reduce light scatter, it may be necessary to paint the extension with a flat black paint. Further testing is needed.
Handle with care as the tabs can break.
BuckeyeStargazer's items are made of PETG plastic and can handle temperatures of up to 80°C (175°F).
