Helix Observing Accessories will provide cost effective observing accessories to Amateur Astronomers that will increase and improve their time spent at the eyepiece. Our goal is to provide observing accessories of high Quality, reasonable Cost, and quick Delivery, while providing exceptional Service to our customers.

Hello, and Welcome to Helix, my name is Tim Hagan. I am a design, manufacturing and quality control engineer by profession; amateur astronomer by passion. Late in 1999, my profession and passion accidentally crossed paths and Helix Observing Accessories was the outcome.
The products on this web site are designed at reducing frustration and wasted time when observing. All the products you will see are ones that I use during observing sessions and have found to be particularly helpful.

Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have about the products. I also give quantity discounts on some products that I manufacture myself. I plan to add new products on a regular basis so check back often. Thanks for stopping by…
