DayStar Solar Scout 60mm DS Dedicated Solar Telescope Bundle | SS60DSB | 724696426226

Designed for both serious observers and astrophotographers, the SS60DS combines a 930mm focal length with an integrated Quark H-alpha filter, delivering premium doublestack contrast without the need for expensive upgrades. The fixed Quark design ensures always-on-band performance, so you spend more time observing and less time adjusting. Just power it up, fine-tune the wing shifting knob, and explore the Sun in unmatched clarity.

Precision and ease of use set the SS60DS apart. The helical front-focus system ensures rock-solid accuracy, while the Solar Bullet Finder makes Sun alignment effortless. The LED status indicator lets you know when the system is warming up, ready, or needs attention—so you never have to guess. Unlike other solar telescopes that require frequent retuning, the SS60DS remains locked on the H-alpha wavelength as long as it's powered via USB or the included battery pack.

Solar Prominence

With DayStar’s trusted reputation and an extended 5-year warranty, you can invest with confidence. Whether you're a dedicated solar observer or a deep-sky astronomer expanding into daytime viewing, the SS60DS Bundle provides unmatched value, reliability, and performance—all in one complete package.
