Acuter Luma-X 40ED H-alpha solar telescope<\/h1>\n

40MM ED F\/6.25 DUAL PURPOSE H-ALPHA PROMINENCES \/ WHITE LIGHT SUNSPOTS TELESCOPE<\/h2>\n

There are only 250 of these solar telescopes in the world. I have managed to secure ONE! Take hold of it. “Dr Ender isch dr Gschwinder” <\/strong><\/em>

Acuter is a world leading brand for innovative, high quality products for amateur astronomy and educational use<\/strong><\/p>\n

The revolutionary Acuter Luma-X 40ED represents a remarkable level of specification and performance at an affordable price and comes with ground-breaking, world-first innovations such as a square telescope tube design and an exclusive switchable zenith mirror design that allows you to switch from an H-alpha prominence telescope to a white light solar telescope for observing sunspots. The telescope contains an ED glass element which increases sharpness and contrast as well as color fidelity and detail reproduction. <\/p>\n

The Acuter Luma-X 40ED is a safe solar telescope equipped with a 40mm front etalon with 0.6 Angstrom or better half-width for observing active solar prominences and other solar surface details in the H-alpha band.<\/p>\n

If you observe the Sun in the narrow H-alpha band, you will be rewarded with impressive, breathtaking, majestic-looking real-time observations of our nearest star, with great details such as solar flares, prominences, spicules, granulation, sunspots and more!<\/p>\n

The set includes a universal smartphone camera adapter to record your observations.<\/p>\n

The Acuter Luma-X 40ED complies with and fulfills the requirements for transmission of ISO 12312-2:2015 (filters for direct observation of the sun). Always follow the instructions in the manual. <\/p>\n

Safety information:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please be extremely careful when observing the sun. Improper use can lead to serious and permanent eye damage! <\/strong><\/p>\n

The 8mm blocking filter in the detachable star diagonal mirror is part of the Luma-X 40ED safety equipment. Never use the telescope with another star diagonal mirror for solar observation. <\/strong><\/p>\n
