Telescope carrying case for Celestron - NexStar 8 / 8i (8i may include optional GPS accessory)

The case includes four lockable latches, three steel-reinforced handles, a 3″ by 26″ steel hinge and die-cut foam lining with compartments for telescope, eyepieces and accessories (including mounting bolts). It can be carried or pulled using the attached wheels. An optional Large-Wheel Upgrade is available (at the time of purchase only). The star pointer must be removed from the telescope and inserted into a foam compartment. The telescope hand unit can be removed for protection, if desired, and placed in a foam compartment.

Outside dimensions of the case are approximately 31-3/4″ x 21-5/8″ x 13-3/4″ and its empty weight is approximately 21.2 lbs. The shipping box is approximately 32″ x 14″ x 22-1/2″ (UPS Ground Oversized 1 rate is at 30 lb) and the shipping weight is approximately 25.8 lbs. All values are subject to slight changes.

JMI Carrying Cases include crush-resistant die-cut foam, contoured to safely hold your telescope during transport. The larger cases are manufactured by JMI with 1/4″ plastic for super strong support. Most cases include an extra handle on one end with wheels on the opposite end for easily maneuvering the case without lifting the entire weight. These attractive and efficiently designed cases are substantially smaller than the original shipping box and even smaller than most soft cases. They protect your investment while making it easier to move your scope from one location to another.
