FlatMaster 250L Wi-Fi
This is the updated version of our Pegasus Astro FlatMaster 250L, our bigger, slimline, flatfield panel with new WI-Fi capabilities. It provides a uniform source of illumination for up to 10-inch telescopes and produces high-quality flat field frames for astrophotography and photometric captures.
Dimmable Panel
Unlike other panels in the market, the FlatMaster can adjust its brightness from 0 to 100%. Forget sheets of paper between your telescope and the panel. Remote control the brightness of your panel. Store the brightness per filter and immediately retrieve the value you need.
The Flatmaster 250L can go up to very high brightness levels so it can easily support short exposures (2-3 seconds at f/7) with 3nm narrowband imaging filters
Manual Button
The FlatMaster has a small push button that sets different gradual levels of brightness. In case you would like to manually operate the FlatMaster, no problem, just click the push button to control the brightness.
One cable operation
Only one cable (USB) is required to provide power and control of your flatpanel.
Wi-Fi support
New Flatmaster is Wi-Fi enabled, allowing you to control and monitor focus remotely from your mobile phone.
Notably, you can operate it simultaneously with USB or Wi-Fi, providing flexibility and ease of use for astronomers, all from the convenience of your smartphone.
