Unistellar Smart Solar Filter - eQuinox/eVscope

Technical Details

Unistellar Smart Solar Filter for eQuinox and eVscope

Observing the sun safely is a fascinating endeavour, one that requires careful planning and the right equipment. It's crucial to use a solar filter, designed to fit over the front of your telescope, to protect your eyes from harmful rays.

This filter decreases the intensity of the sun's light, allowing you to view solar phenomena such as sunspots and solar flares without risk.

A solar telescope, specifically designed for this purpose, can also be a valuable tool. It's equipped with a built-in solar filter and offers a detailed view of the sun's surface. Remember, never look directly at the sun without proper protection - it can cause serious, irreversible damage to your eyes.

Key Features

• Allows safe observation and photography of solar events
• Reduces sun's white light by 100,000 times
• Compatible with multiple Unistellar telescope models
• Guided tracking with the Unistellar app
• Easy setup and observation

Capture Once-in-a-Lifetime Events

This filter is ideal for observing extraordinary solar phenomena, including total and partial eclipses.

It also enables the detailed study of sunspots and bright faculae on the sun's photosphere, making it an essential accessory for solar enthusiasts and educational purposes.

Precision Polymer Technology

Constructed from specialised polymer material, the filter reduces sunlight to a safe level without compromising image clarity.

This advanced technology allows observers to view subtle solar features with high contrast, enhancing both educational and recreational experiences.

Broad Telescope Compatibility

The Smart Solar Filter has been designed for use with multiple Unistellar telescope models, including the eVscope, eVscope 2, eQuinox, and eQuinox 2. Its universal fit ensures that it can be easily installed and removed as required.

Guided Tracking with the App

Using the Unistellar app, users can replace the telescope's dust cap with the solar filter, connect their smartphone, and employ the GoTo and tracking functions. This allows the telescope to automatically follow solar movements, keeping features such as sunspots and faculae centred during observation.

Easy Setup and Observation

With simple installation, safe design, and seamless integration with the Unistellar digital system, the Smart Solar Filter makes solar observation accessible to enthusiasts of all levels.

Whether for personal enjoyment or educational demonstration, it provides a secure and engaging way to explore the sun.
