2008 Saturn Aura Xe Replacement Rear View Mirror

These radios are amazing. Installed in my Jeep above my rear view mirror and I am stoked about it. It’s small enough to not be in the way but is great for communicating with fellow Jeep’s. I used the ghost antenna so that it didn’t get wiped out by limbs on the trail. I’m thinking of purchasing the 6db antenna to help increase my range. I feel you can’t go wrong with this radio! Will be purchasing another for my sons Jeep.

Used it on Saturn last night. Clear view, and easily see space between rings and the planet itself.

I put this eyepiece on my Celestron EdgeHD 8. It is about the widest FOV that I could pull off the OTA. The view is really crisp with point stars to the edge. I can't see any edge brightening or vignetting. The resolution is enough to clearly see the four stars of M42 Trapezium, Jupiter bands, Saturn rings, and even, barely, Saturn cloud bands. The eye relief is comfortable to view the entire field, without glasses. This is a hefty piece. Not a problem on an 8 SCT, but may be awkward on a smaller OTA.

The binocs are all I hoped for. This is a particularly good time to view Jupiter, Saturn, Venus and Mars. Weather is clear and planets are close and bright. I can explore in my backyard and bip from one planet to another without lugging a telescope on a tripod around. Moon detail is outstanding! There is absolutely no substitute for image stabilization. 18 x 50 is the ideal magnification.

I've only used the X-Cel LX 9mm eyepiece to view Saturn and Jupiter so far using a Celestron Evolution 8 with the 90-Degree Mirror Diagonal attached. Both planets looked great and were very sharp. The eyepiece itself is well built and sturdy, huge improvement over any basic eyepiece that comes included with a new telescope.

This is exactly what is advertised. I almost couldn't believe the price, but I've used this to view planets and can make out the moons of Jupiter and Saturn's rings! The moon also looks stunning!! If you're looking for a good intro telescope or even if you're an amateur looking for a less expensive option that still has great quality, I would highly recommend this telescope.

I was looking for a way to view my mac pro desktop 2008 model and my mini mac on the same screen this usb dvi cable kvm switch by IOGEAR is the perfect connection,i am very happy with this product it makes everything so simple.I would definitely recommend this product to anyone trying to connect 2 computers and view them on the same screen.

In the mid-1980s I bought a Nikon 7.5mm f5.6 circular fisheye. Being an older design (1966) its rear elements protruded into the mirror box. Fortunately my F3 had a hard physical mirror lockup. The external viewfinder for this lens attached to the camera on the original Nikon F/F2’s proprietary flash shoe. I was able to buy an AS-3 flash adapter for the F3. With the F3s mirror locked up I also had to use an hand-held light meter. With amazing depth of foield focusing was never an issue. The old zoom lens had six filters on a wheel. One was a skylight and the other five were strongly colored for B&W film. While I liked the circular results, using the lens was a hassle. I often had my shoes or forehead in the picture. On a sunny day, my images suffered from solar flares. My new Nikon 8-15mm AF-S fisheye has none of those old problems. It fits on my DSLRs without any problem. It doesn’t need an external finder or separate light meter. At the 8mm setting (and lens hood off) I get a circular image very much like the vintage fisheye. The new lens is faster and focusable. Like my 14mm f2.8 Nikkor, this zoom uses gel filters inserted in the rear of the lens. I really don’t like this arrangement. This fisheye is similar in weight and size to the 14mm lens. I am also not fond of the electronic aperture control first seen on G lenses. Without an aperture ring one cannot use this zoom on older cameras. At the longer end of the zoom range (12-15mm) the image fills the (FX) frame and lens hood stays out of the way. This image is similar to my inexpensive Bower (Samyang?) 8mm fisheye with its fixed lens hood (and DX coverage). So far I haven’t used my new lens much but I think I will like it.

A great replacement for the original rear cap

Unable to update my iMac (24, 2008) anymore, it was time for a replacement. Ended up with a Mac Mini, the basic version. Added a 2TB seagate SSD External drive and ordered 32GB of RAM. Took several weeks as it was backordered, but the RAM showed up last week. Swap was delayed as i had to order a set of Torx security tools. Thanks Apple. Tools arrived yesterday so i did the swap. The Crucial RAM was recognized by the Mac. Easy replacement, and the RAM should help the machine a bit.
