Meade 2" Solar White-Light Herschel Wedge
Meade SKU: 608010 | Helix SKU: ME608010
Overview
Meade's Solar White-Light Herschel Wedge is proven to give a sharper, higher-contrast image than traditional metallized solar film or front-mounted glass solar filters, by eliminating reflections between the filter and front telescope lens.

Easy attachment to your telescope in a 2", or 1.25" with included adapter, focuser. It is highly recommended to remove the viewfinder while using Meade's Solar White-Light Herschel Wedge to avoid any situation of looking into the viewfinder directly at the Sun. For use with REFRACTORS ONLY. Refractor must be 150mm or smaller. Not for use with SCT, ACF, MAK, or Reflectors.
