How it works

Aim, swap, look up

An 80 mm lens, two eyepieces and a phone adapter. You choose the night and what to point at.

An 80 mm lens

The lens is 80 mm across and fully multi-coated, with a 600 mm focal length, built to bring the Moon, Saturn and Jupiter into the eyepiece.

Two eyepieces

The 20 mm gives 30x for finding your target. Swap in the 9 mm for 67x and the craters, the rings and the moons step closer.

A phone adapter

The adapter clicks into place on the eyepiece. Line up your phone camera and the Moon shows on the screen, ready for a photo.

Before you buy

Six things worth knowing first

  • Two eyepieces.

    Two eyepieces.

    A 20 mm eyepiece gives 30x and a 9 mm gives 67x. Start wide on the Moon, then step in on the craters.

  • The Moon on your phone.

    The Moon on your phone.

    The phone adapter clicks into place on the eyepiece, so you can take a photo of the Moon through the telescope.

  • Aim up or sideways.

    Aim up or sideways.

    The altazimuth mount moves up and down and left and right, with a rough adjustment and a gimbal for smooth control.

  • One backpack.

    One backpack.

    The tube, the tripod and the eyepieces go in the travel backpack, so a darker spot is one carry away.

  • Set it to your height.

    Set it to your height.

    The tripod adjusts from 20 to 52 inches, so you set the eyepiece where you want it.

  • Start with the Moon.

    Start with the Moon.

    The Moon is big and bright, the easiest target to find. Aim with the 5x24 finder, then look through the 20 mm eyepiece.

Why choose it

Why choose the Lunavo

A lakeside wooden dock at dusk, two adults in plain jackets standing beside a white-tube refractor telescope on a black tripod, one of them bending to the eyepiece, a pale Moon above the far shore and the last orange light on the water

Dusk by the lake

The sky goes dark and the Moon climbs. Point the 5x24 finder at it, look through the 20 mm eyepiece and the craters are there at 30x, with the 9 mm ready for a closer look at 67x.

A tidy hallway closet corner with a flat black backpack standing upright on the floor, a folded black tripod leaning beside it against a white wall, a plain wool coat hanging above and a pair of plain sneakers on the floor

Packs away in a corner

The tube, the tripod and the eyepieces fold into the travel backpack. Stand the backpack in a closet corner, or set it on the back seat for the drive to a darker spot.

A wooden cabin porch at night under string lights, a white-tube telescope on a black tripod at the porch rail, one adult with a beard bending to the eyepiece and a second adult in a beanie waiting beside them with a mug, pine trees behind

Your turn at the eyepiece

Swap in the 9 mm and Saturn shows as a small ringed disc, and on the right night Jupiter and its four moons are in view too. Hand the eyepiece to whoever is waiting. Everything looks grey, and the rings are real.

A grassy hilltop at blue hour in winter, an adult in a plain dark parka and wool hat standing at a white-tube telescope on a black tripod at full height, looking up with a hand on the tube, a thermos on the grass and a thin crescent of Moon in the pale sky

A clear winter sky

Cold air, a clear sky and the Moon high up. The tripod adjusts from 20 to 52 inches, so you set the eyepiece where you want it and look up at Saturn and its rings.

A black backpack tied with a loose red ribbon and a plain bow standing beside a lit Christmas tree, a blank kraft tag on the ribbon, a white telescope tube resting across the top of two wrapped plain boxes on the floor, warm evening light

A gift for whoever looks up

For the adult who is always asking about the Moon, a gift that arrives with two eyepieces, a finder, a phone adapter and a backpack. The pack of two covers a second stargazer.

Dusk. The Moon comes up.

Craters, right there.

Then a small ringed planet.

Phone out for one photo.

    Honestly I figured it would show me a blur. Then Saturn popped up in the 9 mm, tiny but with its rings, and I just stood there lol. Grey, not colorful, but the rings are there.

    The finder took me a few tries, tbh. Once the Moon was in the eyepiece it was craters everywhere. The phone adapter took a couple of goes too, but that photo went straight to the family chat.

    Tube, tripod and eyepieces all live in the backpack, so a drive to a dark spot is easy. Jupiter with four moons in a row next to it was my favorite. All grey, no color, and I loved it anyway.

Before you buy

Questions & answers

What can I see the first night?

The Moon's craters, Saturn's rings, and Jupiter with its four moons, depending on what is in the sky that night. Everything looks grey. Saturn's rings are narrow in 2026 but still show as rings.

Is 80 mm enough?

An 80 mm lens is about 3 inches across, enough for the Moon, Saturn and Jupiter. It is not made for galaxies or colorful nebulae, which need a much bigger lens.

How much does it magnify?

30x with the 20 mm eyepiece and 67x with the 9 mm. Find your target with the 20 mm, then swap in the 9 mm to bring it closer.

How do I find the Moon or a planet?

Start with the Moon, which is big and bright. Aim with the 5x24 finder, center the Moon, then look through the 20 mm eyepiece and turn the focus knob. The craters look sharpest along the line between light and shadow.

How hard is it to set up?

A user manual and a setup guide come in the box. Open the tripod and set its height, seat the tube on the mount, then add the finder and an eyepiece.

Can I photograph the Moon with my phone?

Yes. The phone adapter clicks into place on the eyepiece. Line up your phone camera with it and take the photo. Saturn and Jupiter show as small discs, so start with the Moon.

Will the tripod wobble?

The tripod adjusts from 20 to 52 inches and the altazimuth mount has a rough adjustment and a gimbal for smooth altitude and azimuth control. Set it up on firm, level ground.

Can I take it to a dark field?

Yes. The tube, the tripod and the eyepieces go in the travel backpack, so it rides in a trunk or on the back seat.

What is in the box?

The telescope with its 80 mm lens, a 20 mm and a 9 mm eyepiece, a 5x24 finder, the tripod, a phone adapter, a travel backpack, and a user manual with a setup guide.

Can I look at the Sun with it?

No. The kit has no solar filter, so use it for the Moon, the planets and scenery away from the Sun.

What if it stops working?

It has a 1-year warranty against defects in materials or workmanship: we replace it and pay shipping both ways. Wear from normal use is not covered.

What if it is not for me?

Send it back within 30 days of delivery and we refund the product price. Shipping within the US is free.
