Solar Filters with built-in Sun finder!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design of the \u003cb\u003eKendrick Visual Solar Filter with Solar Finder\u003c\/b\u003e has a built-in Sun finder making centering the Sun in your eyepiece very easy. The finder target is visible from both the front and back sides of the filter making centering the Sun easy from either end of the telescope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat's more, Kendrick has replaced the filter rims on the \u003cb\u003eKendrick Visual Solar Filter with Solar Finder\u003c\/b\u003e with three tabs that contain a secure threaded insert and a nylon thumb screw, making the filter much lighter without reducing the security of the fit. The main reason they made this particular change is that many telescopes have dovetails or other attachments that interfere with the proper fitting of a solar filter to the telescope. Now the filter can be placed onto the scope so that the three thumb screws always firmly attach to the body of the scope. As well, the tabs extend down far enough to allow the thumbscrews to connect beyond the bevels found on some dewcaps or the corrector plate rings and tube rings of some telescopes, ensuring a very secure connection to the telescope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe filter material of the \u003cb\u003eKendrick Visual Solar Filter with Solar Finder\u003c\/b\u003e itself is the famous Baader AstroSolar Film. This film has set a new standard for white light filters and gives a very pleasing and high resolution image. The image color is a bluish white. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOTE: To ensure proper fit of the solar filter you must measure the outside diameter of the front opening of the telescope, binoculars or lens. To convert measurements in inches to metric, multiply your measurement that is in inches by 25.4. For example, a dewcap that is 6.25\" outside diameter will be 159 mm (6.25 x 25.4 = 158.75mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKendrick Visual Solar Filter Features...\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe image color is a bluish white\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in Sun finder making centering the Sun in your eyepiece very easy\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstructed of 16 guage aluminum for rigidity\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGives a very pleasing and high resolution image\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMuch lighter without reducing the security of the fit \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kendrick","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":16826108865,"sku":"KEN-6002-SF","price":104.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0851\/2766\/products\/SF-onring2.jpg?v=1776459324"},{"product_id":"kendrick-dewminator-four-port-dew-controller-new","title":"Kendrick Dewminator Four-Port Dew Controller - 2001-DEWMTR - 15% Off!","description":"\u003cp\u003eIntroducing the Dewminator Controller from Kendrick Astro!  This mid-level dew controller is less expensive (and has fewer features) than the DigiFire FX-Pro, but is a step up from the Standard Dew Controller.  With all these features, it could be the dew controller for you!  Here are the feature highlights of the Dewminator:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependently controlled ports - 4 of them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual 12V DC Accessory ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnclosure mounting \"bosses\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuto-dim LED lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15 Amp (total) rated with internal auto-reset fuse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser configurable power cord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved programming to better measure true battery voltage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-Voltage cut off with user ability to disable low voltage protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kendrick","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39595574689905,"sku":"KEN-2001-DEWMTR","price":165.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0851\/2766\/products\/2001-DEWMINATOR-FACE.jpg?v=1776459295"},{"product_id":"kendrick-digifire-fx-pro-digital-dew-controller-2001-fx-pro","title":"Kendrick Digifire FX Pro Digital Dew Controller - 2001-FX-Pro - 15% Off!","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Kendrick Digifire FX Pro is a 4-channel, 4-port temperature sensing digital controller with two auxiliary 12VDC power ports.  One of the power ports is configurable to 8VDC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDigifire FX Pro Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew OLED Graphic Display which displays all settings at a glance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in Voltage Meter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-Duty, individually adjustable power output for up to 4 heaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in 8V DSLR Power Supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 DC Accessory Ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Port 12V up to 7 Amp output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2nd port programmable for 12V OR 8V (DSLR Camera Power).
