The SmartEye is about a year old.
It includes a Baader T-2 Maxbright mirror diagonal and series of adapters. I put the diagonal/adapters together to allow the Smarteye to be used with standard 55mm backfocus focal reducers. I successfully used it with the Askar V reducer, Askar 140mm APO 0.8x reducer, and Askar 185mm APO 0.8x reducer. I also used this setup with the Starzona .65x Apex S & L reducers. I mostly built this setup so that I could get all of M31 in the fov with the Askar V system/reducer. Without the reducers, large objects extend beyond the fov and without the diagonal, the viewing position is not comfortable. The original nosepiece is also included.
The Smarteye is in great shape. The various adapters (which I also used for other purposes) do show marks because they got stuck a few times and I slipped when using a watch tool to break them apart. One important note so I don't forget for potential buyers. If you plan to power it with a battery, you have to be very careful about battery selection (the Pegasus website has detailed instructions).
The price includes shipping in the lower 48. Please feel free to ask questions or request additional pics. I'm happy to share my use reflections with interested buyers.
