Cdc Kids Watching Eclipse With Glasses

There are great eclipse-watching glasses

These solar glasses have done the job again! I've used them before, and once again they're great, protecting eyes of both kids and adults during the recent solar eclipse. Not much else to say...keep a pack on hand for general solar viewing, or for the next eclipse.

This is a wonderful tool for solar viewing. We ordered four, one for each of us, for the 2017 eclipse. Using these magnified the sun ten times, to where the sunspots were easily visible. These are so much better than the glasses and made watching the eclipse more enjoyable. There seems to be some quality control problems though. Two of the four were perfect. One was distinctly lighter than the other three which caused a concern (there are three darkening filters inside each tube -- makes one wonder if one is missing in one). One arrived optically unaligned. With no time for exchange due to the nearness of the eclipse, we unscrewed the viewing lenses on the unaligned one to discover that the inside elements were at two different depths in the tube. It explained the problem. These are slid in and held in place by friction. This binocular arrived separately so its package may have been dropped in shipment. By lightly tapping the binocular against a padded hard surface, we were able to move both lenses forward. Then we cut a piece of soft lens cloth to cover the top of a nickel to push each lens back into the tube at the same depth. We added a nickel at a time until it focused mid-point in the binocular's center adjustment. We then reset the filters and screwed on the lens cap and it worked perfectly. We never unscrewed the cover for the less darkened binocular because we read that they are nitrogen filled. It works fine but it makes one wonder if it is working on two darkened filters rather than three. The cost is very reasonable and it made watching the eclipse more enjoyable. In the end we never used our glasses, only these.

These glasses were great for watching the 2017 solar eclipse. They were out of stock when I ordered them but B&H shipped them out exactly on the date they said they would and they arrived in plenty of time for the eclipse. Thank you for the great service!

These were very comfortable glasses for watching the eclipse! Definitely recommend them for anyone else interested! The cell phone filter worked as well.

Perfect for watching the past eclipse.

Nice glasses for solar eclipse.

The eclipse glasses worked great!

Nice to have for watching a solar eclipse.

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