Description

Lunt LS100MT Advanced Package

The LS100MT Advanced Package Includes

Lunt Solar Systems B1800 Caclium K Module

View the Universe through the Lunt LS100MT Modular Telescope, Day or Night!

LS100MT Modular Telescope

The LS100MT joins the Lunt Solar Systems New Modular Telescope line up, allowing you to enjoy the full range of Astronomical Observation with only one telescope. At 100mm aperture, the LS100MT is big enough to impress in any configuration, while remaining easily transportable for use during the day or night-Enjoy, prominences, surface granulation, active regions and filaments all with a quality telescope that Lunt Solar Systems is known for providing. And with our doppler true tuning pressure system (standard with all of our Modular Telescopes) you can make super fine adjustments in your tuning to delve into the Sun and bring out the absolute best views!

LS100MT Nighttime Telescope

But dont fret once the Sun Sets; simply remove your Hydrogen Alpha module, and dive into the expanse of the night sky. Simply use a standard star diagonal (optional accessory, available in packages) along with eyepiece of your choice, and let the Triplet ED APO Lens (FPL53) guide you across the milky way. With other options including White Light, Caclium K, and Terrestrial Applications, the LS100MT may never find its way back into its storage case!

Versatile Telescope

The LS100MT is truly a one stop telescope experience; easily configured between Hydrogen Alpha, Night Time, Terrestrial Uses, White Light, and Calcium K in minutes, the LS100MT is sure to never leave your telescope line up. The 100MT at its base (Telescope Only) will provide you with an out of this world Hydrogen Alpha experience, allowing for a <.7 angstrom bandpass in its single stack configuration. With its double stack module installed(the DSII/SFPT unit), it will provide a <.5 angstrom bandpass and allow the Sun’s phenomena to virtually leap off its surface in 3D effect.

True Doppler Tuning

Importantly, True Doppler Tuning allows for a shift into and away from the user, adding a 3-D like component to the viewing experience. To be sure, it has minimal effect on proms due to their location at the edge of the disk, but it does have an effect on filaments and likewise the active regions on the surface. Also while looking at a filament at the center of the Sun, the user has the ability to Doppler shift from the base of the filament to the tip.  In this way following the filament through it’s structure toward you and away from you.  Amazingly, this allowing for enhanced visual and imaging capability for the observer as well as a research tool for the avid hobbyist. In addition the pressure tuning system provides an order of magnitude more precision to the tuning of the desired features.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Riley K. ★★★★★

The .65a bandpass really locks in the detail on solar granulation, and the resolution from this scope is noticeably sharper than my old setup. I’ve already spent hours just watching the surface texture shift.

Kevin F. ★★★★★

The 7.1 image size reveals incredible surface detail on the sun, and the .65 angstrom bandpass makes prominences pop like nothing I've seen before. Setup was straightforward with the modular design, and the views are absolutely crisp.

Thomas ★★★★★

I've been using this for solar observing and the >.65a bandpass makes the surface detail pop like nothing I've seen before. The professional-grade optics are sharp right out of the box, no collimation issues at all.
