I confirm, I use two LISA (one for VIS, one for IR) - a luxurious setup! Swap between the two options (VIS/IR) on a single LISA is virtually impossible - too complex to change.

Thanks Francois, Christian, & Olivier!

I ordered the LISA and LISA calibration module, photometric/wide-slit (19hole, 50, 75, 100 micron slits)/slit holder, and adapters for
the Atik 4060ex/SBIG ST-10.

One of the slits wont be ready for 2 weeks, so I may opt to buy the IR kit then after seeing Christian's
impressive IR work with the IR LISA. I know its a complex "network" change, but I think I can do this in
the daytime in my RV/home. If its too much trouble, I'll buy another IR LISA next year if the Euro stays low!

Looking to use this IR capability at Mt. Pinos this summer where the 2500 meter elevation may enhance IR
transmission.
