Pegasus Optics Information

PEGASUS OPTICS is owned and operated by Ron Behrens. The optical shop has relocated from Austin, Texas to a new facility in La Grange, Texas with no interruption in service. Ron has assembled a team of qualified personal to take the business forward. Forty years ago Ron made his first mirror and since 2013 he has been under John Hall's tutelage. You can continue to expect the same great quality products from Pegasus Optics as you have come to expect from John. We look forward to serving our customers for many years. All PEGASUS OPTICS mirrors are manufactured to a stringent tolerance. Now accepting new custom orders, and you also can select from among the listed blanks on Completed Mirrors - Ready to Ship. What do we do? PEGASUS OPTICS specializes in testing and/or refiguring existing mirrors, including arranging packing and transportation to/from the customer, Pegasus, and the coater. We are presently up to date on existing orders, so we will begin new orders without delay. We additionally have other blanks to accommodate many customers' size/focal ratio requirements for new mirrors, and time from order to receipt is minimal. Why refigure your mirror? We have refigured hundreds of previous-manufactured mirrors. Without exception, our customers report greatly improved optical performance, and find that the refigured mirror meets or exceeds their expectations. There is no reason that a refigured, mass-produced mirror will not perform as well as any premium mirror in the same size or f/ratio, all other factors being equal, e.g., provided the telescope provides adequate support and optical collimation. We guarantee mirrors refigured by us will meet your expectations. Typically you can buy an older mass-produced product and have it refigured at a total cost that is far less than the cost of a production mirror.
