PrimaLuceLab ECCO2, Environmental Computerized Controller for EAGLE

Starting Price: $195.00
Price as Configured: $195.00

Brand: PrimaLuceLab / SKU: PLL-ECCO2

ECCO is the Environmental Computerized COntroller for EAGLE that automates the management of dew heaters during long exposure astrophotography. By adding the ECCO module to your EAGLE, it will automatically and continuously monitor the temperature, humidity of the air around your telescope and the temperature of your lenses by calculating the dew point (the temperature below which dew condenses). This way it will vary the heating of dew heaters connected to the appropriate ports avoiding dew to condensate on your optics. This is automatic with an easy to use device. Just connect it to the EAGLE's USB port. For this reason we decided to call it ECCO. In Italian, it means "There you go"!

Recommended Add-ons and Accessories

Product	Price	Quantity
PLL-BACEDX - PrimaLuceLab DX Finder Base About This Product The PrimaLuceLab DX finder base can be installed on many telescopes to let you install finder supports from many brands. The DX base provides 4 slots to allow mounting with 4 screws (not included), up to the M4, either with flat or round head. On the bottom side there is a double curvature to perfectly fit with various focusers.	$29.00 each
PLL-ECCOSUP-PL - PrimaLuceLab Guide Rings Support Plate for ECCO About This Product The "Guide rings support plate for ECCO" allows you to install the "60mm CompactGuide scope with PLUS 80mm guide rings" (PLLCG60) on the ECCO on a standard Vixen style finder shoe. This way you can use the guide scope with an autoguide camera or also with an eyepiece as an optical finder.	$23.00 each
PLL-ECCOSUP - PrimaLuceLab Guidescope Support for ECCO About This Product ECCO is completely metal built and, for this reason, it can also be used as a finder support by adding this optional "Finder support for ECCO". So you can install your finder or guide scope above ECCO instead of using guide rings (this is a perfect solution, for example, for small apochromatic refractors and very portable setups).	$79.00 each
PLL-1000061 - PrimaLuceLab ECCO NTC Adapter for Dew Heater Rings About This Product ECCO-NTC is the adapter that allows you to use a Celestron Dew Heater Ring with the ECCO2 environmental computerized controller. Dew Heater Rings differ from standard dew heater straps, as they utilize an NTC thermistor to measure temperature of SC or aplanatic SC telescopes corrector plate without the need for an external temperature probe. ECCO-NTC is small and lightweight, allowing you to connect it to any standard Vixen-style finder shoe and it comes with 2 grub screws to attach the main body of ECCO2. ECCO-NTC does not require external power since it’s powered directly by ECCO2. This adapter is specifically designed to work with ECCO2 and it’s not compatible with the previous/first generation ECCO controller.	$115.00 each
PLL-SESTOSENSO-TEMP - PrimaLuceLab Temperature Sensor for ECCO, SESTO SENSO and ESATTO About This Product This temperature sensor is compatible both with ECCO, the environmental computerized controller for EAGLE, and with SESTO SENSO and ESATTO, the robotic focusing solutions for telescopes. When used with ECCO, this temperature sensor allow it to record optics temperature for automatic power management of dew heaters connected to the EAGLE. When used with SESTO SENSO or ESATTO it's used in order to compensate focusing for changes in temperature (by using focusing software not provided with this sensor).	$25.00 each
