Inventory closeout sale, everything must go. Up to 35% off. Some conditions apply.
We are closing our inventory side of the business and focusing solely on software - going back to our roots so to speak. No store coupons required, all prices have been marked down. First come, first served, until quantities last. We are no longer placing orders with manufacturers. Absolutely no rain checks. We reserve the right to cancel and refund orders at our sole discretion. We do our best to maintain our inventory accurate, but mistakes do happen, if you purchase an item that is no longer in stock, you will be refunded. The sale does not apply to some higher-end items such as 10Micron. Prices subject to change without notice. ALL SALES ARE FINAL.
Occasionally, we find a box under a box under a box in the back of the warehouse with hidden treasures, and when we do, we add these items on the site, so even though you may not find what you're looking for today, it could automagically appear next week.

Baader AstroSolar Sun Eclipse Glasses [BA-GLASSES]
$9.15 CAD$12.20 CAD96 in stock On saleAvailability: usually ships within 10-14 daysBaader: Baader AstroSolar Sun Eclipse Glasses
Baader AstroSolar solar eclipse observing glasses are made using the highly regarded Baader AstroSolar™ safety film. This foil is CE-tested and reduces the intensity of sunlight by 99.999%.
Baader AstroSolar™ film
With AstroSolar™ the Sun appears in its real colour - neutral white. Other films and most glass filters produce a blurry bluish or reddish Solar image, thereby cutting part of the spectrum. Especially with an orange sun, it is very hard to see faculae regions which are visible predominantly in the blue wing of the spectrum.
Due to its neutral colour balance, AstroSolar enables the use of various colour (or interference) filters which allows the observer to concentrate on certain spectral passbands for investigations of different layers within the solar 'atmosphere'.
Eye safety
AstroSolar™ is essentially free from pinholes, since - other than with even the most expensive glass filters - it is coated on both sides, so that the chance of two pinholes overlapping each other is extremely faint. Pinholes do appear, but to 1 out of 10000 only in optical density 2.5! Baader AstroSolar™ safety film has been approved for eye safety by the National Bureau of Standards in Germany, the PTB. Unlike any other Solar Filter on the market, AstroSolar™ is CE-tested according to EG-Norm 89/686 and EN 169/92 (notified body 0196). All processes connected to this product have been thoroughly tested. Coatings are inspected constantly for consistency to ensure your eye safety!
Important Never view the Sun without a suitable Solar Filter! Solar observing is dangerous and can be hazardous to eyesight. Safety is everyone’s responsibility - please read the safety notes supplied with the product carefully. -
