Hi, I am trying to order some gratings from Edmund's Scientific for the Lhires3. I am not sure what to look for on their website. The gratings that I am...
I don't think Edmund have the right sizes for the Lhires III. Best to buy from Optometrics, the usual supplier (I believe Edmund also source gratings from...
One thing important is the blaze angle. I got my gratings from optometrics. I believe Shelyak gets the small diagonal mirrors from Edmund. Stab...

Hello Adam, I confirm that we buy the gratings from Optometrcis (this is also the Edmund's supplier). We use the "standard replicated ruled gratings" for 150...

Hi there, What's your experience with the replacing gratings on the grating cartridge. Is it difficult or time consuming? Is the grating attached with set...
Hi Adam, Although it is easy to change the grating on its holder, you risk to damage the grating each time you do it. It is safer to have a holder for each...
... Jose, The cost of 150,300,600,1200 gratings from Optometrics is 3 * 105 + 129 = $444. The cost of cartidges with gratings from www.astrovid.com is 4 * 535...

Adam, < Framing a grating and sliding the framed grating into the cartridge would be a <cost saving enhancement to the Lhires. Yes, that would be a great...
est t'il possible de faire de la bonne spectro avec un mirroir sphérique ou pas en fait est ce que les résultats vont changer ou vont etre influencés et...
I have four gratings in four cartridges, three of them with the original ('pre-Shelyak') design which do make it possible to change the gratings ... but not...
... It reminds me of cheap HP printers and their expensive ink cartridges. That's how they make their money and apparently Shelyak figured out that too and...
Adam, I have the strong feeling you are a newcomer to the Lhires III scene and, as such, don't really appreciate the tremendous unpaid effort made by Francois...
I strongly support what Bernard just said. The decades of background R&D (browse thru Christian B's website to see) that have gone into producing this...
Adding to Eric 's, and my last posting, it is worth noting that a) The Lhires III is produced in small quantities in one of the most expensive manufacturing...
Hello all, Interesting discussion - but I'm afraid this is not really the right place to have it here (if you want, we can continue "off-line"). Of course, I...

Sounds like a very good idea. What are the current official COROT targets (I may have an opportunity tonight)? Bernard...
... What's the right place to discuss Lhires? ... Yes, cost. ... So it is screwed - right? ... Oh no! Now it is glued. Take Bernard's suggestion seriously. He...
Efficiency is priceless. If I need an instrument that I can manipulate and change even in the worse situations, in order to do not loose time, cost is the less...
