Explore Scientific 82° Series eyepieces, with their 82° apparent field of view, immerses you in a very comfortable ultra-wide field that naturally promotes relaxation at the eyepiece. When you relax your eyes and take in the scene presented before you, it is much easier to observe for longer periods of time, and details begin to materialize that may not have become apparent to you at first glance. Another great benefit of ultra-wide eyepieces is the ease with which you can gaze, not directly at an object, but slightly to either side. This skill, called using averted vision, is especially helpful when observing faint objects, because using averted vision puts the image on a part of your eye that is more sensitive to light, allowing you to see fainter images.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--end tab--\u003e\u003c!--start tab--\u003e\n\u003ch1 id=\"specs\"\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spanrow\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"speccell speccell-left\"\u003eItem Number\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"speccell\"\u003eEPWP8288–01\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spanrow\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"speccell speccell-left\"\u003eFocal Length\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"speccell\"\u003e8.8mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spanrow\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"speccell speccell-left\"\u003eLength\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"speccell\"\u003e85mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spanrow\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"speccell speccell-left\"\u003eWidth\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"speccell\"\u003e48mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spanrow\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"speccell speccell-left\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"speccell\"\u003e8.9oz; 255g\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spanrow\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"speccell speccell-left\"\u003eBarrel Size\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"speccell\"\u003e1.25\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spanrow\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"speccell speccell-left\"\u003eEye Relief\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"speccell\"\u003e15.6mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spanrow\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"speccell speccell-left\"\u003eField Stop Diameter\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"speccell\"\u003e12.4mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!--end tab--\u003e \u003c!--start tab--\u003e\n\u003ch1 id=\"warranty\"\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited Warranty is one year, which converts to the Explore STAR Transferable Extended Life of the Product Warranty when product is registered within 60 days of purchase. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/explorescientificusa.com\/apps\/product-registration\"\u003eClick Here\u003c\/a\u003e to register.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--end tab--\u003e \u003c!--start tab--\u003e\n\u003ch1 id=\"video\"\u003eVideo\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pW6RMfhU_Co\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003c!--end tab--\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Accessories\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/explorescientificusa.com\/products\/dew-heaters?variant=102746619920\" title=\"Astrozap Dew Heater Strap\"\u003eAstrozap 1-1\/4” Eyepiece Heater Strap\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px;\"\u003eCA Residents: \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/explorescientificusa.com\/pages\/prop65\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProp 65 WARNING(S)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Explore Scientific","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45643707777265,"sku":"EPWP8288-01","price":229.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/5711\/6312\/files\/8-8.jpg?v=1736423173","url":"https:\/\/villohome.com\/products\/explore-scientific-82-series-8-8mm-waterproof-eyepiece-epwp8288-01","provider":"Villohome","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
