Heyward H. Verified Buyer –
Superb quality, nice smooth adjustments, with tight fine movement, just absolutely perfect! It’s more expensive than others in this size, but the quality makes it worth the price. The other popular brand of this size wedge breaks easily, as reported by several members of my group, even causing damage to their telescope. I am super confident this w
edge will never fail to hold and protect my scope.
ONE OBSERVATION THOUGH:
Some of the images on this site, as well as the manufacturer’s, shows indexes labeled “latitude”. This may NOT be correct. My wedge was not labeled as such and when I set my latitude, it was obviously not right, being a long way off. Then I remembered my other wedge uses “inclination”, not latitude. Once I set the inclination, my polar alignment was perfectly spot on for elevation! That’s a credit to the accuracy of the indexes.
To find the needed inclination (the physical angle of the telescope in relation to the ground), subtract you latitude from 90 degrees.
(Inclination = 90 – your latitude)
Btw, I think some older William Optics wedges may have indexed the wedge with latitude. I think this one is a newer version because there are some other slight differences with the images. But I absolutely love this wedge! Well worth the three fold cost over the other brand.
