Meade’s set of three vibration isolation pads typically reduce telescope tripod vibration times to less than one second, allowing undisturbed viewing sooner. Telescope vibrations are caused by windy conditions, ground vibrations (from people walking near the scope or nearby traffic), an unsteady mount or tripod, or even the simple act of touching the scope to focus. They result in reduced image quality, as high-powered images are blurred as they dance around in the eyepiece until the normal telescope vibrations damp out to zero. The pads consist of a hard molded tripod leg cup isolated in the center of a hard molded ground cup by an elastomeric vibration-absorbing material. The pads fit between the bottom of the tripod legs and the ground to isolate the tripod from ground contact and soak up vibrations. The pads fit between the bottom of the tripod legs and the ground. They work on any hard surface – grass, dirt, concrete, asphalt, wood, etc. For best results, the rubber feet on the bottom of your tripod legs should be removed before placing the legs of the tripod onto the vibration suppression pads.
