Their most popular line of telescopes include the LX200 series of "GO-TO" ranging from eight to sixteen inchdiameterSchmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, the modified Ritchey-Chrétien RCX400 series 10 to 16-inch diameter introduced in 2005, as well as smaller Maksutov-Cassegrain telescopes. Others include the RDX "GO-TO" German equatorial mount series, with telescopes ranging from a 6-inch refractor and reflector to an 8 and 10-inch Schmidt-Newtonian, and just recently, the "Light-Bridge" truss-tube Dobsonian telescope using a break-down metal optical tube on a sturdy wooden mount. This new Dobsonian, in eight, ten, and twelve-inch diameters, replaced the older "Starfinder" series that used a traditional "closed" tube design.
Other accessories produced by Meade include the series 5000 eyepieces that are comparable to the construction and performance of Chester, New York-based Televue Opticals "Nagler" (82-degree field of view), "Panoptic" (68-degree field of view), and "Radian" (60-degree field of view) eyepieces.
