Lunt 50mm H-Alpha Solar Filter Double Stack Filter ONLY for 60mm Solar Telescopes (OPEN BOX)

The Lunt 50mm H-alpha Solar Filter Double Stack Filter is designed specifically for enhancing solar observing capabilities when used with 60mm solar telescopes. Here are some key points about this filter setup:

1. Purpose: The H-alpha filter allows for observing the Sun in a very specific wavelength of light (656.28 nm), which corresponds to the emission of hydrogen atoms in the Sun's chromosphere. This wavelength reveals solar prominences, filaments, and surface details such as granulation.

2. Double Stack Filter: This refers to a setup where two filters are used in series to narrow down the bandwidth of the observed light, providing enhanced contrast and detail in solar features. Double stacking improves the view of the Sun by reducing the bandpass of the H-alpha filter system.

3. Compatibility: The Lunt 50mm H-alpha Solar Filter Double Stack Filter is intended for use with 60mm solar telescopes. It's important to match the filter diameter with the telescope's aperture to ensure proper fit and performance.

4. Optical Performance: Lunt filters are known for their high-quality optics and are popular among solar observers for their clarity and detail in solar features.

5. Safety: When observing the Sun, especially in H-alpha light, it's crucial to use proper solar filters to protect your eyes and equipment. H-alpha filters like the Lunt 50mm filter are designed to safely block harmful wavelengths of light while allowing only a very specific wavelength to pass through for observation.

6. Setup: Ensure that your 60mm solar telescope is compatible with the 50mm filter setup. Proper installation and alignment of the filter are necessary for optimal solar viewing and imaging.
