Optical Tube Assemblies
The unique thing about these OTA’s is they can be used for White Light, CaK, or nighttime use with the addition of the proper filters or accessories. We have used the Lunt Engineering logo on these scopes to differentiate them from dedicated H-alpha solar telescopes with the Lunt Solar Systems logo. Lunt Engineering is a division of Lunt Solar Systems. You can now buy one telescope for viewing both the Sun or the nighttime sky. This makes these telescopes versatile and cost effective. You never have to worry about safety with the proper Lunt attachment for viewing the Sun.

My Lunt ED 80mm telescope delivers beautiful diffraction-limited images and is a joy to use. There is no false color, and it is finished to a high quality standard. The sliding dewshield and focuser work well, and the telescope arrived well collimated. Lunt customer support has also been terrific. I am very happy to have made my purchase through Lunt.
