what is the price range of a decent PST?

ATTENTION!
PST stands for personal solar telescope. It is built for viewing the sun.
Don't look at the sun! Either directly or through anything else unless you are ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE that your gear is sufficient.

Thank's for this. I like they way you show what's going on directly through the eyepiece. ;-)
-
As usual your videos always inform thank you for sharing.

im thinking of getting solar binoculars. would you recommend them? i cant afford a scope right now.

@ParaglidingManiac Your idea wont work - my PST scope with H-alpha filter are specially designed for sole purpose of safe viewing of the sun in hydrogen light. Don't play games with the sun!

There aren't any bino solar H-alpha scopes - just scopes like the basic PST as shown.

You can't look at it closely can you? And how come it's suddenly black and the sun is red? That's so wierd!

@Glennfalconi Correct IF you don't use a special narrow-band 0.7A hydrogen filter on your scope like me that only allows a millionth of the sunlight through and is thus perfectly safe;-) There are rules for the unwary!
