LS40THa Premium Kit — 40mm Dedicated H-Alpha Solar Telescope Double-stack performance in a grab-and-go package.

Now with new-generation etalons — every unit individually measured at 656.28nm on Lunt's precision metrology equipment. Every specification is verified, not estimated.

The LS40THa Premium Kit delivers the finest double-stack performance available in any 40mm solar telescope. The front-mounted LS40FHa double-stack filter adds a second 0.45Å tilt-tuned etalon to the optical path, placing two etalons of equal specification in series. Combined system bandpass: <0.29Å — tighter than any other double-stack combination in the Lunt range, and a level of chromospheric contrast no competitor in this aperture class can match.

This is serious H-alpha equipment in a genuinely portable package. At 2.6 pounds with a 10:1 dual-speed rack-and-pinion focuser, a 7.2–21.5mm zoom eyepiece, and an extended 6" Vixen dovetail for balanced mounting with the DS filter in place, the Premium Kit is configured for the observer who wants the maximum from 40mm aperture — at the eclipse site, in the field, or at home.

What You'll See

At <0.29Å combined bandpass, the chromosphere reveals structure invisible at single-stack bandwidths. Plage boundaries sharpen into defined cellular networks. Filaments resolve into complex multi-strand structures with dark cores and distinct edges. Active regions display the full depth of their magnetic architecture. Prominences show internal threading and flow patterns from base to tip that single-stack instruments render as smooth, featureless arcs. The chromosphere stops being a texture and becomes a landscape.

The 7.2–21.5mm zoom eyepiece lets you scan full-disk context at 19x, then push in to 56x on active regions without changing glass — critical when conditions are changing and solar features are evolving faster than eyepiece swaps allow.

Why This Package

The LS40FHa Double Stack filter is included. The 10:1 dual-speed R&P focuser provides the micro-adjustment precision that sub-quarter-angstrom observing demands. The 6" Vixen dovetail provides the extended rail length to balance the system with the DS filter mounted. Every unit is individually assembled, bench-tested, and monochromator-verified before leaving Tucson.

Great shoe, horrible lace design.
Size: 13, Color: White, Size: 13, Color: White
This shoes look great and the materials for the actual shoe feel great. They run a little big that doesn't bother me. Unfortunately, the lace design is horrible. I've now have 2 pairs of these shoes and both times the bottom lace has ripped out of the stitching. The first time was on the 2nd day I wore them, and the replacement pair to those it happened after I walked 20 feet. Both times I've tied a knot in the bottom lace so that I could get through the day. Ideally these laces should be connected together and not attached to the shoe (this is how both of my Skechers Slip-ins are designed). Because I like the rest of the shoe so much I'm buying elastic laces to replace the horrible original laces.
