The DayStar Solar Scout is a dedicated Hydrogen Alpha solar telescope with an aperture of 60mm.
Note: Some dovetail bases included with the Solar Scout 60 have scuff marks and scratches as seen in photos #3, #4, #5 above. They arrive from the manufacturer in this condition. Your SolarScout 60 is new and unused when shipped from Agena.
60mm Entry Level "DS" H alpha telescope optical tube assembly. All SS60ds telescopes feature a narrow, 'doublestack' bandpass performance (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
- 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
** Application of 2" eyepieces or components, and Camera T-adapters require additional, optional accessories that are sold separately.
