    Very timely, just got my MN190 a couple of weeks ago and the focuser is indeed subpar.

    That’s a big, heavy scope. Hope the focuser meets your expectations. Good to see you again David and I hope you are enjoying southern Sweden! The El Niño winter here in the middle of Canada has been very mild (which is nice) but very cloudy! Dr B from Manitoba, Canada 🇨🇦

      Thanks, southern Sweden is nice, but cloudy and I have been working a lot! Actually I tried to sell this tube, but no one was interested, so I decided to give it another chance with a new focuser, so we'll see how it will perform! :)

    Looks like a great focuser. I'm going to see if they make one for my SW Quattro 150p, keep us posted on how it performs.

    Hi. Thanks for a good video. I want to buy the same telescope and it seems smart to change the focuser. Just one question the ORIGINAL and the NEW focuser would I be able to reach focus with my image train (standard 55mm FL)? Consists of ZWO OAG, SVBony filter drawer, ZWO 11 mm ring and ASI585MC Pro.

    I have a new 190mn. You got me interested in this new focuser. Looking forward to your review. Does this focuser come with attachments for an 2” ASI2600MC and a 1.25” planetary camera? I want to use both with this scope.

      It will be very interesting to try it! And they were very helpful, so I'm sure they can help to fit your gear. I got great help to find the right ring for my ZWO filter wheel!

    Why on Earth is Skyoptiskt not exporting to Belgium? The only EU country in their no-go list! This must be a mistake. Great video, I’m strongly considering an MN190 for purchase.

      Ah, when clicking on the options things got right. Did you get the 60mm or 35mm stroke version?
