A 100 mm professional grade APO triplet with FPL53 glass and ion assist broadband coatings handles the night sky, while a modular hydrogen alpha etalon drops into the same optical path for full disk solar viewing. Swap the module and focuser, and the instrument changes role in minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eOn the Sun, the internal etalon delivers a bandpass below 0.65 Angstrom in single stack form and below 0.45 Angstrom when double stacked. Doppler True barometric pressure tuning lets you shift across the hydrogen alpha line at 656.28 nm, so prominences, filaments, active regions and surface granulation each come into their best contrast as you tune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eAt 714 mm focal length and f\/7, the LS100MT reaches a theoretical maximum magnification of 175x and pairs well with a wide range of eyepieces and cameras. Choose a 12 mm, 18 mm or 34 mm blocking filter to match visual work or large sensor imaging, then pick a dual speed Crayford, rack and pinion, or Feather Touch focuser.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"kt-hero-img\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"kt-sq\"\u003e\n      \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/8273\/7521\/files\/Ls100MT-Solar-_-Night-Telescope-Convertable_6c_a92c4843-5009-4c00-88ba-68d528d7f462.jpg?v=1743113327\" alt=\"Lunt LS100MT 100mm universal day and night telescope on its mounting rings and dovetail\"\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"kt-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"kt-features-copy\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 class=\"kt-section-heading\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cul class=\"kt-feature-list\"\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTwo Telescopes\u003c\/b\u003e - in one tube: remove the hydrogen alpha module and focuser, fit the night backing plate, and the same optics serve the stars.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAPO Triplet Optics\u003c\/b\u003e - in FPL53 extra low dispersion glass, precision aligned and finished with ion assist broadband anti-reflection coatings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePressure Tuning\u003c\/b\u003e - uses the Lunt Pressure Tuner for Doppler True barometric control across the 656.28 nm line, with no tilt induced sweet spot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBlocking Filter Choice\u003c\/b\u003e - spans 12 mm, 18 mm and 34 mm units in diagonal or straight through form, so visual and large sensor imaging are both covered.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFocuser Options\u003c\/b\u003e - include dual speed Lunt Crayford, dual speed rack and pinion and dual speed Feather Touch, each with fine focus control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eReady to Mount\u003c\/b\u003e - with CNC machined tube rings, a Vixen style dovetail, a red dot sun finder handle and an aluminum finished hard case.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"kt-features-img\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"kt-sq\"\u003e\n      \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/8273\/7521\/files\/LS100MT-Sun-Finder-Handle_31_f2a375f5-3513-42d5-87fa-076508ec75c6.jpg?v=1743113327\" alt=\"Close view of the red dot sun finder carry handle fitted to the Lunt LS100MT telescope tube\"\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"kt-specs-wrap\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"kt-specs\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003cth colspan=\"2\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/th\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel \/ SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLS100MT\/R\u0026amp;P, LS100MT\/B1200RP, LS100MT\/B1800R\u0026amp;P, LS100MT\/B3400RP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptical Design\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfessional grade APO triplet refractor, FPL53 extra low dispersion glass, ion assist broadband AR coatings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAperture\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100 mm, fully unobstructed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocal Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e714 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocal Ratio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ef\/7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBandwidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLess than 0.65 Angstrom single stack, less than 0.45 Angstrom double stack, at 656.28 nm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEtalon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModular internal etalon, UV grade fused silica\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlocking Filter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 mm, 18 mm or 34 mm, diagonal or straight through, 6 Angstrom blocking filter bandpass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocuser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual speed Lunt Crayford, dual speed rack and pinion, or dual speed Feather Touch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTuning\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLunt Pressure Tuner, Doppler True barometric pressure tuning\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTheoretical Max Magnification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e175x\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCNC mounting rings and Vixen style dovetail\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSun Finder\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed dot sun finder handle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published;
