Quick Overview

  • The DayStar Solar Scout is a dedicated Hydrogen Alpha solar telescope with an aperture of 60mm.

Product Details

60mm Entry Level "DS" H alpha telescope bundle. All SS60ds scope bundles feature a narrow, 'doublestack' bandpass (please note that this is not a conventional Double-Stack design which usually has a second front-mounted etalon). The engineers at Daystar have made great strides in cost reduction so that they can now offer a quality 60mm H alpha telescope at unheard-of pricing!

The SS60 is only offered in a "Chromosphere" model which contains an etalon with a bandpass in the range of 0.3 - 0.5 Å (angstroms). The Chromosphere model will show the highest contrast on the solar surface, and will show some broad prominences, although not in great detail.

Includes:

  • Quality Achromat Doublet 60mm refractor
  • Helical Front-end Focus with fine precision can focus for visual and imaging.
  • 'Doublestack' performance at no extra cost
  • Top quality Quark* performance
  • Micro-USB power cable and US wall charger
  • 'Solar Bullet' finder
  • Vixen/Photo style mounting foot
  • Additional International wall power adapter (EU, UK, Aus, and US plugs)
  • Fully Multicoated 25mm plossl eyepiece
  • 1.25" mirror diagonal
  • 10,000 mAh Daystar battery with mounting strap
Features:
  • 930mm Effective Focal Length
  • Best Priced 40-60mm H-alpha Telescope
  • "Doublestack" like performance
  • Robust and precision accuracy: Helical Front-Focus can't slip and does not turn the eyepiece.
  • Solar Bullet finder projects safely onto white screen.
  • 16mm eyepiece aperture.
  • Adaptable for 2" or Camera mount / views
  • Always on-band with USB power, 5v 1.5amp
    110-240VAC wall adapter (Optional 24mAh battery available)
  • Tuning knob allows wing shifting +/- 0.5Å
  • LED indicator for power, warming, ready, fault
  • 3 year warranty
* Quark component is not interchangeable on SS60ds. Original SS60 telescopes can interchange Quark optical components, but for cost reduction needs, the SS60ds has an all-in-one conjoined construction.

** Application of 2" eyepieces or components, and Camera T-adapters require additional, optional accessories that are sold separately.
