Hi,

The home planetarium (Blue) photo is the actual photo I have taken, the Vixen home planetarium I have taken from the catelogue, the actual product is the same except the constellation is in Japanese, and the sphere is in black colour, that's why the iOptron model is more attractive even for static display.

Regards,

Robin Low

What is the difference compared to the star theatre 2 n home star planetarium from segatoys? thanks alot

OT: Besides the above mention, anyone has a home planetarium to recommend?
Hi I have the Segatoys HomeStar Pro Planetarium. It can project 10,000 stars... you can actually use a binoculars to resolve the stars. :P Also, it rotates automatically and have timer settings to shut off. There is a shooting star function that allows random timing shooting stars, but sadly, comes from the same location. However, note that it is not that bright, and best used in an enclosed room without windows or with windows that have good blinds. Light pollution from surrounding lights does affect the stars visibility...so make sure the room is like 'Mersing' condition.

It is a good education tool, and nice accessory for the house.
Hi Canopus,

I'm trying to offer my products to a potential buyer, I'll appreciate please do not interfer with my transaction as I have my website and overhead to maintain.

Moderator: Please protect the vendors' interest, we're in legal business, and try to offer the best to the local astronomers!

Thank You,

Robin Low
