Description:
The LUNT LS100MTBP&F conversion kit is a key accessory that turns the LS100MT solar telescope into a true apochromatic 3-lens ED refractor. With this upgrade, the LS100MT becomes a fully versatile instrument suitable for nighttime observation and imaging of the Moon, planets, and deep-sky objects.
The original H-alpha unit can be easily removed by loosening three knurled screws. The included 2" rack-and-pinion focuser then replaces it, offering a solid and precise 95 mm travel with zero backlash or tilt. A 10:1 reduction ensures fine focusing, and both 2" and 1.25" ring clamps are provided.
More than just a focuser, this kit also enables white-light solar viewing using a Herschel wedge or Ca-K solar observation with a dedicated Ca-K module. This makes the LS100MT capable of observing in H-alpha, Ca-K, and white-light—all with the same telescope.
This conversion kit is absolutely necessary for using the LS100MT as a general-purpose astronomical telescope.
