Eclipse Glasses Sun Test Has Ring Around It

The glasses were excellent. They provided a clear safe view of the sun and eclipse.

I tested 4 brands and the B&H Eclipse Glasses gave the best view of the sun and felt the most protective! The VisiSolar Smartphone Filters produced a natural white light in photos... but any position I held them on my smartphone, the sun images came out as an oval shape sun with a lot of glare. So I cut a big piece of cardboard cereal box to make a wide phone shield, cut out a rectangle where my smartphone lens is located, and taped a single cardboard-framed eyepiece of eclipse glasses over this lens hole to make a much better cell phone camera filter.

Great glasses to view the sun, I used for the eclipse, I was there for around 3 hours, it was much better than the carboard paper glasses, It fit well on top of my regular glasses.

I bought these for the big 2017 eclipse event, and they did not disappoint. I was very impressed with their performance, and was happy to have them in place of the viewing glasses. The detail visible on the surface of the sun (sun spots, etc.) was great, and watching the moon move in before totality was amazing. Once I got the hang of finding the sun, I had no issue using them - but they are a little tougher than just the glasses. Users should also be sure to lean up against something (or lay down) to help prevent movement. I'm excited to use them again to periodically check on solar events, as well as to watch things like the transit of Mercury in 2019.

We are getting ready for the Texas eclipse in a few weeks and bought these glasses. We already tested them looking at the sun and they are perfect. They are so much better than the cardboard glasses. Can hardly wait to use them for the real thing!

Solar glasses worked just perfect for the solar eclipse. The sun was just perfectly and safely viewable, and lenses were comfortable and seemed to be sturdy. My kids loved them! Saved them for the next eclipse! THANKS!

Ring well made... I got it to add sun filtering material for the upcoming eclipse... nice large area to fit it in.

I'm am eagerly awaiting for the eclipse to happen on April 8th so I can put these glasses to the ultimate test. However, I have done some preliminary tests and these glasses are well built and the lenses are perfect for staring at the sun without damaging my eyes. I am confident they will be great for viewing the eclipse as well. Can't wait!

I ordered this to use for the solar eclipse and wildlife. I've only had a chance to test it on images of the full sun disk with solar filter and so far I'm impressed. I'm excited to add the extra reach to my 100-500 lens in such a small package.

Nice glasses for solar eclipse.
