Celestron X-Cel LX 2x Barlow Lens – 1.25"

Double the Power. Maintain the Precision.

Upgrade your viewing experience with the Celestron X-Cel LX 2x Barlow Lens, designed to double the magnification of your 1.25” eyepieces without sacrificing image quality. Ideal for planetary, lunar, and double star observations, this high-performance Barlow is a versatile, must-have accessory for any serious astronomer.

High-Performance Optics

  • Apochromatic lens system ensures high contrast, edge-to-edge sharpness, and superb colour correction—virtually eliminating chromatic aberration.

  • Fully multi-coated optics deliver superior light transmission and clarity, ideal for detailed views of the Moon, planets, and bright deep-sky targets.

  • Great for use with fast telescopes, where precision and image quality are essential at higher powers.

Refined Mechanical Design

  • Constructed with a robust black anodised aluminium body and accented with orange details to match the X-Cel LX eyepiece range.

  • Features a rubberised central grip band, providing a secure, slip-resistant hold—perfect for gloved or cold hands during observing sessions.

  • Equipped with a brass compression ring that grips your eyepiece gently but firmly. Unlike set screws, it protects the eyepiece barrel from marring or scratching while ensuring a stable fit.

Flexible and Filter-Friendly

  • Compatible with all standard 1.25” eyepieces.

  • The insert barrel is threaded for 1.25” filters, allowing you to install a filter once and switch eyepieces without removing it—ideal for both visual astronomy and astrophotography workflows.

  • Ideal for expanding your telescope’s magnification options without the need for additional eyepieces.

Why Choose the X-Cel LX 2x Barlow?

Whether you're focusing on the intricate details of Saturn's rings or exploring the rugged surface of the Moon, the Celestron X-Cel LX 2x Barlow Lens provides enhanced magnification while preserving image integrity. Its apochromatic design, filter compatibility, and thoughtful mechanical features make it an indispensable addition to your astronomy toolkit.

Order Fulfilment

This helps us provide a wider range of specialist equipment and may result in slightly different delivery times.

Returns Policy

If something isn’t right, we’ll always try to help.

  • Unused items in “as new” condition can usually be returned within the statutory cooling-off period
  • Please contact us before sending anything back so we can advise on the safest way
  • For unwanted items, return shipping is your responsibility, and original shipping may be deducted where applicable
  • If a product is faulty or damaged, we’ll arrange repair, replacement or refund in line with your consumer rights — and we’ll cover reasonable return costs

Does it come with a warranty?

All our products are UK stock so come with manufacturers warranty

What happens if I don't like it?

We always want you to be happy with your purchase — so if you’re unsure, please ask us first. We’re always happy to give honest advice before you buy.

If the product arrives and you simply decide it isn’t for you, you can usually return it within the cooling-off period — as long as it’s unused, in perfect condition, and returned with all original packaging and accessories.

Because telescopes and optical equipment are large, delicate and expensive to ship, you’ll need to cover the cost of sending it back, and if we originally subsidised delivery, we may deduct our outbound shipping costs from your refund.

We’re a small specialist business, and unnecessary returns genuinely hurt us — so if you’re unsure at all, please talk to us first. We’d rather help you choose the right item than process a return.

How fast is shipping?

We aim to ship in-stock items as quickly as possible.

  • Most in-stock orders dispatch within 1–2 working days
  • Delivery usually takes 1–3 working days after dispatch (UK mainland)
  • Heavier / oversized items and special orders may take a little longer

You’ll receive tracking details as soon as your order is on its way.

Astronomy equipment often requires specialist packing and trusted couriers — we do this to keep your gear safe, not to slow things down. If you need something urgently, just ask and we’ll do our best.
