length of a telescope. Used with any eyepiece, it doubles the magnification of
that eyepiece. Celestron offers two Barlow lenses in the 1-1/4" size. The 2x
Ultima Barlow (#93506) is a compact triplet design that is fully multicoated for
maximum light transmission and parfocal when used with the Ultima eye-

design. It weighs just 4 oz. and it is under 3" in length.
