American Optics Eclipse Glasses

[0.07 lb] The eclipse has come and gone, and I can still see. These American Paper Optics glasses and lens filters protected my eyes properly and allowed me to take pics of the eclipse.

[16 x 1.5 x 0.8"] Perfect solution for eclipse viewing. Appreciated getting something off the American Optics list from a reliable source.

[5 VDC, 1.5 A] Nice glasses for solar eclipse.

[Multi Coated] I bought this filter for the Great American Solar Eclipse of 2017/8/21. Yes it is expensive, but if you are a serious solar eclipse chaser who travels around the world to catch a glimpse of it, this is a must have item to capture the phases of the solar eclipse in sharp, white detail. Please view the compare and contrast photos between a disposable filter and the Marumi filter.

[0.014 lb] The glasses did what they were made to do. Protect our eyes from the eclipse of 2017.

[0.15 lb] Used for the 90% eclipse in NYC and worked great. American made.

[0.65 lb] I recently had the pleasure of using the DayStar Filters Eclipse Glasses during a solar eclipse, and I must say, they provided an exceptional viewing experience. However, there are a few important precautions to keep in mind. Firstly, let's talk about their primary purpose: viewing eclipses. These glasses offer superb protection for your eyes during solar events, allowing you to witness the celestial dance safely. The clarity and crispness of the view were remarkable, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. However, it's crucial to emphasize that these glasses are not suitable for activities like driving, even on sunny days. While they excel at blocking out the intense light of the sun, they also significantly reduce visibility. Attempting to operate a vehicle while wearing them would be extremely dangerous, as you simply won't be able to see the road or other vehicles properly. Furthermore, I must stress the importance of not using these glasses for activities such as surgery or woodworking. The diminished visibility could lead to serious accidents, potentially resulting in injury. It's not worth the risk, so please exercise caution and use appropriate eye protection for such tasks. In summary, the DayStar Filters Eclipse Glasses are fantastic for viewing eclipses and protecting your eyes during solar events. However, they are not suitable for driving or engaging in hazardous activities where clear vision is essential. Stay safe and enjoy the wonders of the cosmos responsibly!

[0.13 lb] Glasses were perfect and arrived on time (even ordering less than a week before the eclipse when the stock of glasses were still on backorder).

[4.485 lb] I used this setup to track the sun during the Great American Eclipse. It was a little difficult to get everything setup and connected properly (the instructions could be simpler), but once I did, it worked well. On Eclipse day, setting up tracking without the pole star visible was tricky. I didn't get it exactly right, but it worked well enough to not need constant adjustment.

[Polymer] Drove from Alberta, Canada to Indianapolis to visit my American relatives and view the eclipse. I had B&H deliver to their American address which worked well. Given the widespread reports of counterfeit eclipse glasses I much preferred to deal with a reputable outfit like B&H.
