repeat buys?

I am wondering what pieces of equipment people bought more than once because they were either too good to let go, or just very useful

Here is my list:

19mm Panoptic
3x TV Barlow
Siebert bino
1.25" dielectric diagonal
Meade finder bracket and base

Opteka Timer Remote (http://opteka.com/timerremote.aspx)

My first one broke (my fault), so I replaced it with two more, one for my Olympus E-1 and one for my Olympue E-5.

The unit is cheap ($30) and economically made, but it works as advertised. I didn't want to say "cheaply made" because it isn't, but it also isn't up to the construction standards of a typical Olympus product, or Nikon, or Canon, or any of the other major camera manufacturers.

It has good basic time lapse functions, which was ideal for last year's annular solar eclipse and Venus transit.

However, the Optekas will soon be partly/mostly superseded by TriggerTrap, which can do so much more.

31mm Nagler (at least 5)

14.5" Starmaster (on my 3rd now)

Binoviewers of various makes (lost count)

13mm Ethos (2)

I have also owned at least two full sets of Pentax XWs.

I'm sure there are more that I have forgotten. Yes, it's a sickness.
