Proper Eclipse eye protection in a good product

ByThe WBon May 24, 2017

Style: Power Viewers Solar Observing KitVerified Purchase

Made my purchase for the big Eclipse event on August 21, 20017. Wanted something with a little more viewing magnification and this product sounded like it fit the bill.

Unpacked mine and tried them out with my wife near by. They work as represented.

What I like:
* Simple construction -- cardboard box with top sun bill cover
* 2X power -- brings the view of the sun in much better and closer
* Pre-stretched "Solar" film that is ISO graded safe for full sun viewing
* The view is of yellow/orange color
* Dark, dark, dark glasses -- everything away from the sun is black
* Safe to view for extended periods of time

I wear glasses, so these viewers are away from my eyes more than a non-glasses wearer has them. I used it with a brimmed fishing hat to give me additional protection from the sun shining over the top of my viewer and glasses. A bit tricky, but with practice, it works. You need the additional protection.

I'm geared up for the big day. Now, pray for clear skies that afternoon.

The Ultra-Star of Solar Kits and 2x More Power!

ByCosmicsniperon July 1, 2017

Style: Power Viewers Solar Observing KitVerified Purchase

Celestron EclipSmart Ultra Solar Observing & Imaging Kit Includes ISO Certified Solar Sunglasses, Four Eclipse Viewers, Camera Solar Filter, 2017 Total Eclipse Guide & Map
The EclipSmart Ultra 8-Piece Solar Observing and Imaging Kit has something for everyone and its for this reason that I love this kit. You receive 4 pairs of standard solar shades that are perfect for kids and sharing with family or friends. The 1 pair of solar glasses included are similar to a pair of comfortable sun glasses but are specifically made for viewing the sun. A protective bag is provided for the solar glasses. There is also 1 solar safe photo filter for DSLR's and smartphones, an eclipse guide book, and informative transit map and poster.

As an astrophotographer, having travel-friendly gear is a must. The EclipSmart photo filter safely covers up to a 67mm DSLR lens and can be temporarily taped in place over the lens when imaging (see photo). It's small enough to fit in the camera bag and perfect for travel. The eclipse guide book, authored by eclipse chasers Fred and Patricia Espenak, prepares you for August 21, 2017 with hints and tips, fun facts, beautiful photos and illustrations, and timing/magnitudes for cities inside AND outside of the totality path in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

The EclipSmart Ultra 8-Piece kit is a great all-around choice for the family and smartphone/photographer. You won't be disappointed! For those that desire a larger view of the sun, I highly recommend Celestron's EclipSmart 2x Power Viewers kit that can be purchased separately.
----------------------

Celestron EclipSmart 2x Power Viewers Solar Eclipse Observing Kit Includes Two ISO Certified Safe Solar Eclipse Viewing Binoculars & 2017 Eclipse Map
The EclipSmart 2x Power Viewers are hands-down my favorite viewer for the magnification they provide when compared to standard solar shades or glasses. Two viewers are packaged with an informative transit map for the August 21, 2017 transit. The viewers are not worn, but instead are held to the eye like binoculars and feature a creative fold-flat design that incorporates a visor that protects the front solar film when folded flat. This protection is important when tossing the 2x Power Viewer into a bag or luggage because there is far less chance of damage. It's also meets ISO requirements for filters used to safely observe the sun, so you can enjoy the views knowing you have a quality product in your hands.

During first use, I noted a double image of Sun. This was due to holding the viewer too close to my eyes. Simply holding them slightly further away from the eye made the images merge beautifully. My spouse and teen daughter compared the 2x Power Viewers with other standard, non-magification solar shades and each preferred the EclipSmart 2x Power Viewers for the larger and better view of the Sun. If you prefer to not hold something up to your eyes (or have trouble doing that), I'd recommend the Celestron solar shades or the deluxe shades found in the EclipSmart Ultra and Deluxe kits. For the price and the 2x magnification, you can't go wrong with this product from Celestron. I'll be ordering more for friends and family!

fun facts, preparation and tips for viewing

ByGBaybeeon March 19, 2017

Style: Solar Shades Observing KitVerified Purchase

This kit has 4 well-made solar eclipse glasses and an informative guidebook. We have family living near the path of totality and have already made plans to stay with them. The extra glasses will come in handy. The colorfully illustrated guidebook will too. It includes definitions, history, fun facts, preparation and tips for viewing, a general map of eclipse path, and a list of eclipse times and percent for larger cities in Canada, USA, and Mexico. The glasses are ISO-certified heavy film. I looked at cheaper eclipse glasses sets, but chose this one for its reasonable price and because I trust Celestron to supply glasses that are safe to use. Can hardly wait!

Eclipse Photography

ByAmazon Customeron April 24, 2017

Style: Solar Shades Observing KitVerified Purchase

This filter allows me to actually see the sun thru the view screen on my DSLR. Very important for getting the correct settings! I would use some tape to hold the filter onto the body of the lens. Very easy to use on my iPhone! Can see the sun with no issues and snap the shot! The glasses are well built and are itching for some eclipse action. Good for viewing sunsets too. The guide has good tips for viewing and has interesting facts about eclipses. Great package for the price :)

Epic!

ByBrettpon July 9, 2017

Style: Ultra Solar Observing & Imaging KitVerified Purchase

Like most people I purchased these for the upcoming eclipse. The kit is awesome! I really like the plastic glasses and the eclipse guidebook. The photo filter is cool but not easy to take a picture with my phone, I imagine it would be much better with a camera rather than a phone. The plastic glasses fit good and feel solid. The paper ones are great too. With both pairs I found it helpful to cup my hands around the glasses to prevent light from getting in the bottom and sides. Overall very very happy with purchase.

Worked better than welder mask (still too bright)

Worked better than welder mask (still too bright). Able to look through it with comfort, for a long period of time. Highly recommended.

Great product.

This is a great product with extras. I'm keeping mine post-eclipse because of welding, soldering, and sungazing.

These worked great at first

These worked great at first, but then the lens fell out on 2 of them when we were using them during the eclipse. Very dangerous for children to use as eye protection.

It worked really well - the glasses were perfect. the lense cover allowed for some great photos, just wish I'd brought a way to attach it to the camera when I went out.

It was radical dude

Worked great, it was very hot were I was viewing the eclipse so my sweat was causing the card board frame to get soggy and started to fall apart.
