Solar Filters & Telescopes
J.M.B solar filters are manufactured to strict quality control standards, making them one of the best values on the market today. In both performance and appearance, our quality shows.
Active flares and coronal mass ejections (CME) travel at high velocity towards the observer, which results in their wavelength being Doppler shifted shorter than Ha. If the velocity is high enough, this wavelength could be outside the passband of the filter and the feature would not be observable. The T-Max allows the user to de-tune the Solarmax slightly to bring such phenomena into better visibility.
The Lunt Wedge is designed to replace the standard Lunt Solar Systems 2" White Light Solar Wedgediagonal at the rear end
of your refracting telescope. Unlike front mounted filters the Wedge
transmits a safe level of full spectrum light providing true white light
views.
The 5mm BF-15 is to be used on telescopes with a focal length up to 500mm. The Blocking Filter is not a stand alone filter. It is an integral part of the Coronado design and cannot be used without a SolarMax series filter on the front of the optical system.
UPGRADE the standard focuser to a 2" Starlight Feather Touch Focuser with 2.5" travel draw tube. Includes adapter for use on LS60THa or LS60TCaK.
Energy Rejection Filters reduce the heat load on your filter assembly by absorbing or reflecting UV and/or I light and transmitting light in the desired visual spectrum.
The Blocking Filter is the second element in any Coronado H-Alpha system, it is just as crucial to your safety and the system's performance as the front element. If you are switching to a longer focal length telescope your SolarMax system you can purchase blocking filters separately. The BF-10 to be used on telescopes with a focal length <1000mm. The blocking filter is not a stand alone filter.
The LS35THa dedicated Hydrogen-alpha telescope is the most compact 35mm etalon system currently available. An unobstructed, front mounted, 35mm etalon provides a bandpass of <0.75 Angstroms. Prominences and some surface detail can quickly be viewed thru this very portable single stack system. Add it to an existing system or use as a quick grab and go.
If you think the view through a SolarMax II filter is amazing, you won't believe the incredible contrast and detailed resolution you can have with a Double Stacked SolarMax II filter system.
CORONADO PST - The Personal Solar Telescope(PST) incorporates state-of-the-art, patented technology to provide superb views of both Solar surface detail and prominences. The PST uses a 5mm blocking filter that cannot be removed or changed. It uses a modified Sol Ranger as its built-in sunfinder. Includes a 20mm Kellner multi-coated eyepiece.

Coronado by Meade SolarMax II Solar Filter set with RichView tuning system. Includes 40mm diameter primary H-Alpha etalon filter with sub 0.7 angstrom bandwidth and Blocking Filter.
The LS60THa is a complete Solar Telescope. The refractor based system has a precision aligned singlet chromatic lens with a 60 mm aperture. The front singlet lens reduces the stray-light over an achromat by half. With the matched collimation lens set, it also fully corrects for on axis coma, astigmatism and de-centering aberrations and provides a full spherically corrected flat-field Solar-Telescope.

SolarMax 40 with BF5 blocking filter and TMax Tuner. AS1 series thermally stable with hard, non-degenerating coatings. BF5 Blocking filter intended for scopes with 500mm focal length or less.
Internal narrowband filters allow for a <2.4 Angstrom bandpass. Primarily an imaging system due to the difficulty of many to visually see everything that CaK has to offer. For telescopes up to 100 aperture and 1800mm focal length.

0.5PST - The Personal Solar Telescope incorporates state-of-the-art, patented technology to provide superb views of both Solar surface detail and prominences. The PST uses a 5mm blocking filter that cannot be removed or changed. It uses a modified Sol Ranger as its built-in sunfinder. Includes a 20mm Kellner multi-coated eyepiece. This model includes the PSM40 40mm module, reducing the bandwidth to 0.5A.
