Default Used Kendrick's Laser Collimator for an SCT?

Wonder what Uncle Rod had to say....

Uncle Rod, as he's stated here before, prefers the star test.

However, I've owned a couple of the Kendrick SCT collimators and they
perform pretty much exactly as indicated in the documentation on the
Kendrick site. I'm not sure about the 5 times greater accuracy claimed by
Kendrick but they are at least as accurate as a star test as long as you
follow the directions precisely.

I don't own one of these now. I've sold both the ones I owned to fund other
projects. My scope doesn't need collimating very often since I almost never
move it. I will most likely buy one of these again at some point in the
future if I have the extra cash lying around.
