Astromania vibration suppression pads - for vibration-free observing
Imagine you are observing on a clear night, but your enjoyment is spoilt due to the wind or a nearby road making the image in your telescope unsteady. Small vibrations are being transmitted directly to the image.
This does not need to be a problem - These new Astromania vibration suppression pads reduce vibration and provide you with a steady image for an enjoyable night's observing.
A Good Partner of Tripod
- If you want better photography;
- If you have already bought a tripod;
- If you are experiencing vibration problems.
Then you need this set of pads.
They do work effectively.
The advantages in a nutshell:
- dampens out tripod vibrations from the wind or from touching the scope
- makes observing possible when located near to roads
- stops the tripod's feet sinking into softer surfaces
- avoids damage to the floor in your home
- prevents dirty tripod feet
- even works with heavier telescopes
Astrophotographers and visual observers love a steady image
A stable image is a must for successful exposures if you want to photograph the night sky. Suppose your telescope is standing on a balcony, terrace or concrete platform. Every step you take is transmitted directly to the telescope and shakes the image around. These flexible vibration-suppression pads insulate the telescope from such vibrations and the result is a stable image. And they let you walk around your telescope without having to worry.
Practical Design
- These pads are sold in sets of 3 (one for each tripod leg), and the circle lines can be adapted to most tripod feet. If you lose or damage a pad during use, you can purchase a single piece which ASIN is B07535Z9K7.
- The bottom of the anti-vibration pad is made of hard plastic, which provides the superior support intensity. A combination of rubber pad and center skid lines provides greater cushioning without loss of stability. Please note that this may not be suitable for smooth hard surfaces such as tiles.

Been using these to stabilize the shake and reduce focus shake as well so far works very well. Vibrations from walking and cars passing in the distance are also greatly reduced in vibrations.

Nice pucks for a better price than the name brand ones. I really don't see any difference between these and the more expensive ones with branding and different colors. I bought them to do vibration isolation for stereo gear, where they were not such a good match - no fault of the product though. They made the bass muddy sounding when inserted under my gear, so I asked to return them and Amazon arranged a return no problem. I'm sure they are great to absorb the frequency vibrations they were designed for and to go under optical gear but I can't comment on that. Sorry, this is a bit of a useless review but I wanted to give my opinion of the product being high quality and that folks shouldn't try to use the product for the purpose I did. I still don't quite understand the effects of various vibration control devices under audio gear - I would have thought these would have been great.

The ‘jiggle’ of stars, planets using high magnification eyepieces in my telescopes has been reduced.But it is not a “MagicBulletâ€. You have to have a very steady mount that is well engineered - surprisingly few meet this basic element of visual astronomy. Younalso have to have heavy duty, solid tripod that again is sturdy and isn’t prone to vibrations/shaking. So the use of these pads reducing vibrations from the ground are important to improving the jiggling viewsMy only real ‘complain’ is the slippery bottoms that provide reduced grip/contact with the ground. On a deck, the entire telescope can move under wind loads, especially lager OTAs that are almost like wind-sails. I glued some coarse fabrics to the bottoms of these ‘pucks’ and that has helped the skidding/slipping. Maybe if the manufacturer had considered this and made the bottom contact surface with an ‘abrasive’ finish, this would solve the issue. Hence my 4 Stars Review.

I was skeptical about these. My Telescope is small and it shakes really bad. And it doesn’t help that we get a lot of wind that just comes and goes. I got these today and tested them on Concrete patio. Almost no shake after focusing. The sake went from about 6 seconds to about 1. When you’re focusing on a planet that matters a lot. I’m very happy. No they don’t slide on the ground and I don’t want them too. That would defeat the purpose of stability and anti vibration. Love em’.

I have a 140mm refractor I use on a goto Skywatcher AZ-EQ mount and I never could use the fine focus because of focus shakes. I had seen these pads before in another brand name and considered trying them but wasn't sure if the price of the brand name ones were worth it. Then I discovered these and decided to give them a try. Simply put - they work. No more focus shakes when using the fine focus knob. These pads appear to be identical to the much higher priced brand name ones and probably are made in the same factory. If you're experiencing vibrations when focusing your telescope give these pads a try. They work and are worth every penny.

Utilizo las almohadillas estabilizadoras con un telescopio Celestron StarSense 127AZ, el cual es bastante difÃcil de estabilizar por el tipo de montaje. La vibración se reduce un poco, no totalmente, aunque si me ha permitido capturar mejores fotografÃas de los planetas mayores.

They really do cut down on vibration and are a good price

The Astromania Pads work well and eliminate vibrations as intended.The exact same pads are sold and marketed by other retailers and Telescope Manufacturers at a far greater price.The Astromania Pads give great value and are highly recommended

Very handy in that they allow you to “slide†the tripod around without any damage to the hardwood floor. Nice too that the legs stay centred in the cups. Would recommend

This product is exactly as advertised.Similar if not better quality than the brand name competitors on the market.Used this with a few different mounts and it made a significant improvement.
