Precise Polar Alignment Made Easy with the Vixen PF-L II
The Vixen PF-L II Polar Scope makes accurate polar alignment easier than ever for your Vixen Polarie Star Tracker! Featuring an improved 5x20mm optical system with a wide 10° field of view, this precision polar scope allows you to align your mount using three reference stars without complicated date or time adjustments.
Its illuminated reticle features eight adjustable brightness levels and an automatic shutoff function, making alignment simple even under dark skies. With polar alignment accuracy of 3 arcminutes or better, the PF-L II helps you achieve more reliable tracking for long-exposure astrophotography. Simply attach it to your Polarie mount, align the reference stars, and start imaging!
Standout Features of the PF-L II Polar Scope
Simple Installation
Simply remove the back cover and tripod base of the Polarie and insert the new parts to complete the assembly. It's ready to use right away.
Easy Reference Stars
The built-in alignment scale displays the positions of the reference stars directly within the polar scope’s field of view, eliminating the need to read an external hour-angle scale in the dark. This makes polar alignment faster, easier, and more convenient.
Dark-Field Illumination
The built-in red LED dark-field illumination lights up the reticle without washing out faint stars, making polar alignment easier in low-light conditions. With eight adjustable brightness levels, you can customize the illumination to your preference. The light also gradually dims and automatically shuts off after 1–2 minutes to help conserve battery life.
