Some people have bought them, removed the 70mm scope and put on the PST instead.
Now, I know what you're thinking, a solar scope with goto for 1,400 objects!
I think the idea of it is so that they have mount which tracks.

This sounds like a very good deal. Has anybody out there got one of these already? and is there a PC control hookup?
Also, if people find this in there local LIDL can they post that here. I find that not every shop carrys all the specials, they seem to spread the various specials over many stores and not carry the lot in any single store. The LIDL I go to didn't get the zoom binos al all

Eh...... John, it was Aldi that had the zoom binos, not Lidl :oops:

Perhap because light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

I'll ring lidl tomorrow and see if I can get any info on the number they expect to have in each store. If its anything like when they sell satellite gear or computers you may need to queue well before 9am to get a ticket (one per person).
