TE-14WD vs TSE-14WD, what’s the difference? (1 Viewer)

Hi,

I don't think there is any. The 30x wide EP for the small body scopes is marketed under both names - Kowa uses TE...

I was wondering what’s the difference between these two eyepieces? Thanks!

Hello!

As I found while surfing ebay ads, the TSE-14WD is older and made directly for TSN-820 series scopes and has 32x magnification with those bodies, but TE-14WD is the current 30x fixed magn. model for TSN-600, TSN-660 and 82SV series scopes (and thanks to god for olda TSN 1-4 telescopes too).

Cheers

Hi,

no, the 32x wide EP for the 820 series was called TSE-14WE - see the following link for a snapshot of the Kowa page in 2008 listing it...

If you google TSE-14WD you get lots of vendor pages for the 30x wide for the small body scopes, not for the 820 series. But Kowa calls it TE-14WD -TE as with all their current EP offers...

Yes, you got the point. The first I mentioned is the TSE-14WB, sorry for that.

I checked the paper box of my newly acquired 30x fix ocular and has both name (TS/TSE-14WD) on the box. :-O
