Anti-Vibration Suppression Pads 3 Pic for Telescope Mount&Tripod

Work great for my telescope, stop sll vibrations.

This does the job well for the price

Definitely makes the vibration time shorter.

These pads work on my tripod to keep it stable and non slip on concrete.

Shipped quickly, good product, works well. Pleased with this purchase.

I was skeptical about these. My Telescope is small and it shakes really bad. And it doesn’t help that we get a lot of wind that just comes and goes. I got these today and tested them on Concrete patio. Almost no shake after focusing. The sake went from about 6 seconds to about 1. When you’re focusing on a planet that matters a lot. I’m very happy. No they don’t slide on the ground and I don’t want them too. That would defeat the purpose of stability and anti vibration. Love em’.

Unfortunately the pockets for the tripod legs don't securely retain the tripod which easily slips off. They're neither deep enough nor sufficiently rubberized to prevent slipping.

The ‘jiggle’ of stars, planets using high magnification eyepieces in my telescopes has been reduced. But it is not a “MagicBullet”. You have to have a very steady mount that is well engineered - surprisingly few meet this basic element of visual astronomy. Younalso have to have heavy duty, solid tripod that again is sturdy and isn’t prone to vibrations/shaking. So the use of these pads reducing vibrations from the ground are important to improving the jiggling views My only real ‘complain’ is the slippery bottoms that provide reduced grip/contact with the ground. On a deck, the entire telescope can move under wind loads, especially lager OTAs that are almost like wind-sails. I glued some coarse fabrics to the bottoms of these ‘pucks’ and that has helped the skidding/slipping. Maybe if the manufacturer had considered this and made the bottom contact surface with an ‘abrasive’ finish, this would solve the issue. Hence my 4 Stars Review.

Más allá de que sirvan para anti-vibracion,en mi caso particular tener el telescopio en mi habitación y con ventanas y poder realizar observaciones, al tener el piso parejo y liso, lo desplazo suavemente, en un tramo muy cortito,con cuidado, el telescopio se mantiene estable,seguro y hago las observaciones relativamente rápido. A nadie digo que lo hagan, solamente si alguien tiene una situación similar a la mía, decida por sí mismo, tomando en cuenta la diversidad de telescopios y tripies...

The Astromania Pads work well and eliminate vibrations as intended. The exact same pads are sold and marketed by other retailers and Telescope Manufacturers at a far greater price. The Astromania Pads give great value and are highly recommended

Very fast delivery. Item as described. Giving as a gift to go with another item so not used yet but will do the job.

Great product. Does the job it was designed for.

Very handy in that they allow you to “slide” the tripod around without any damage to the hardwood floor. Nice too that the legs stay centred in the cups. Would recommend
