Well, I finally got the C14 and put the WO focuser on it and it is very nice, but there are a few things I noticed that are kindof annoying. I guess I am just spoiled from the moonlite I had on my CPC1100! The fit and finish of the WO is superb and it works very smoothly. I am glad I bought this focuser because the stock focuser on the C14 pretty much sucks, there is absolutely NO fine adjustment! I am hoping it gets smoother with use, which I am sure it will EVENTUALLY!

... That said, I like the Scopestuff GSO low profile 2 speed Crayford for $120. It has the black indexed drawer tube and a lower profile(3.1") ...
I just purchased one of these from Jim at ScopeStuff last week and asked him to add the nFOCUS controller and motor to the focuser. It is a very nice unit for the price with excellent fit and finish ... now I could use some clear skies to field test.
