Affordable Artificial Star for Aligning SCTs and Other Scopes

Hello All,

Continuing my adventure with aligning my Orange Tube SCT indoors with an artificial star   based on our Starlite Mini LED flashlight.  The "pinhole" is a chip of laser film printed black with a small clear dot for the pinhole (see photo) which I find is working great!  But wait there's more,  we still have two RED lens in the mini so you can switch between using it as an Astronomer's  red LED adjustable brightness flashlight (equivalent to our world famous Starlite Mini LED flashlight) with with the slide of a switch change it over to the artificial star with adjustable brightness. 

All for the low low price of $34.95 

Attached are actual images (taken with my iPhone camera ) approaching focus (do note the dust bubbles in the images are from dust on the eyepiece) as illustration of use for SCT collimation.  And a couple of images of the business end of the Mini flashlight.
