Celestron - 114mm Newtonian Reflector Telescope - Silver/Black
- General
- Brand: Celestron
- Model Number: 22403
- Product Name: 114mm Newtonian Reflector Telescope
- Color: Silver/Black
- Additional Dimensions
- Optical Tube Dimension Diameter: 114 millimeters
- Objective Lens Diameter: 114 millimeters (Generally, the larger the diameter of the objective lens, the greater the light-collecting power and the brighter images will appear.)
- Dimensions
- Product Height: 52 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Product Width: 25 inches (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Product Depth: 52 inches (The out of box depth of the item. Depth is measured as the distance from the front of the item to the back as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Product Weight: 15 pounds (The out of box weight of the item.)
- Compatibility
- Computerized Star Locator Compatible: true
- Included
- Software Included: SkyPortal
- Computerized Star Locator Included: true
- Eyepieces Included: 2x 1.25" eyepieces: 9mm, 25mm
- Tripod Included: true
- Case Included: false
- USB Cable Included: false
- Material
- Material: Other
- Performance
- Water Resistant: false (Resists some degree of water penetration.)
- Power
- Battery Size: Other (The battery size required for operation.)
- Features
- Computerized Hand Control: true
- Magnification Type: Variable (Variable magnification indicates the presence of a zoom function on the device, but fixed magnification cannot be adjusted by the user.)
- Optical Design: Reflector (There are three primary optical designs for telescopes: refractor, reflector, or catadioptric. Refractors use lenses, reflectors use mirror(s), and catadioptric telescopes use a combination of both to form images.)
- Indicator Light(s): false
- Tripod Mountable: Yes
- Imaging
- Magnification: 269 times
- Exposure Control
- Focal Length: 1000 millimeters (The distance from an optical device's primary lens or mirror to the point where light rays come together in a single focused point, used to determine a device's magnifying power.)
- Other
- Assembly Required: Partial
- Limiting Visual Magnitude: 13 (Measures the brightness of the object as determined from the naked eye (will be less than the same object's limiting photographic magnitude). The larger the magnitude, the fainter the item that can be seen.)
- Resolving Power: 1 arc sec (Refers to the device's ability to distinguish detail between far away objects and separate distinct points of an object at small angular distances. The lower the arc seconds, the greater the ability to distinguish detail. Generally, resolving power increases as the diameter of the telescope increases.)
- Slow-Motion Control: Mechanical (For optimal tracking of astronomical objects, smooth and steady slow motion control is necessary. Manual control requires adjustments made by the user, while mechanical controls automatically adjust.)
- Telescope Class: Newtonian reflector
- UPC: 050234311502

Product Manuals
A: Yes, the 114mm Newtonian Reflector Telescope is powerful enough to reveal Saturn's rings, Jupiter's cloud bands and four of its brightest moons, Venus' phases, and subtle features on Mars during a favorable opposition. With its 9mm eyepiece (111x), you will also see a lot. Sincerely, Garrett at Celestron
A: 8 user supplied AA alkaline batteries are required, or you can use an external Celestron PowerTank Lithium battery.
Q: Does this telescope need a memory card to function
A: The LCM 114mm Newtonian Reflector Telescope comes with a preprogrammed computerized NexStar+ hand control to operate, so no memory card is necessary. Sincerely, Garrett at Celestron
Q: Can you tell me what adapter / part number you suggest for an Iphone? Thanks
A: Basic Smartphone Adapter, 1.25” Item #: 81035
Q: Can you use your iPhone 7+ as the camera function?
A: Yes, you can certainly hold your smartphone directly up to the telescope's eyepiece to snap photos. It should work well for terrestrial and lunar targets.
Q: Does this telescope come with a camera function so you can take images of the planets?
A: No, the 114mm Newtonian Reflector Telescope does not come with a camera function, but camera and camera accessories are available separately.
Q: What power is this telescope?
A: The 114LCM gathers 265x the Light Gathering Power (Compared to human eye). The 25mm eyepiece will produce 40x magnification while the 9mm will produce 111x magnification.
