Comments about Celestron Celestron NexStar 102 SLT, 102mm (4") diameter Refractor Telescope with Motorized Altazimuth Mount & 4,000+ Object Database:
SLT handpiece light flickers on and off after a while, making a torch neccessary for using it.
View is very limited with supllied eyepieces.
Unstable. Hard to focus due to instability.
Basically, the SLT doesn't work, we can never find 3 bright stars that it recognises.
It is a kids toy product, buy something else!
