Review: Do NOT buy THIS one - Do not buy this one for the sole purpose that it will be delivered by Yodel who are always late. Look for the same product from a different seller or do not use express delivery here. But the product itself is great so I gave 5 stars! Works very well and easy to use
Review: Fits like a glove - Fits my C8 perfectly, as expected. It's relatively fragile but I was aware of this before purchasing and am careful handling it as my eyes are at stake. Overall a great product at a good price arrived in time for the partial eclipse this year. One happy amateur astronomer

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will it fit 8 inch reflector telescope or just fit Schmidt-Cassegrain**
A: The solar filter will just fit the Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope.

**Q: Will it fit Celestron Nexstar 8se?**
A: From another vendor.  Saved the shipping cost so I used Amazon......hope this helps.This Celestron EclipSmart Solar Filter for Celestron 8" Schmidt-Cassegrain and EdgeHD telescopes will take your viewing experience to the next level while providing Solar Safe, ISO-compliant viewing. Comes with two Velcro straps and four self-adhesive Velcro pads to prevent the solar filter from slipping off unexpectedly for additional safety.Suitable for use with the following telescopes:8" Advanced VX Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope - 120268" Advanced VX EdgeHD - 12031CPC 800 GPS (XLT) Computerized Telescope - 11073-XLTCPC Deluxe 800 HD Computerized Telescope - 11008NexStar 8SE Computerized Telescope - 110698" NexStar Evolution - 120918" Nexstar Evolution HD with StarSense - 12096CGEM 800 Computerized Telescope - 11097CGEM 800 HD Computerized Telescope - 11080CGEM II 800 SCT - 12010CGEM II 800 EdgeHD - 12017CGX Equatorial 800 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope - 12050CGX Equatorial 800 HD Telescope - 12055

**Q: Does this come with a safe place to store or carry the filter?**
A: It comes in a cardboard box, it also fits nicely in a 1 gallon Ziploc bag.

**Q: Is this filter compatible with Meade LS8 telescope?**
A: Hello Felipe (et al), as promised, I measured the inside and outside diameter of this Celestron Eclipsmart Solar Filter (8" Eclipsmart Solar Filter model #94244). The maximum inside diameter is: 21.5 cm or 8.46 inches if one wanted to fit the filter OVER a telescope tube. The OD measurements (to fit this filter into a telescope - as it is designed to fit into the Celestron) is actually 22.6 cm or 8.9 inches. Of course, it is still adaptable to other sizes by making an expansion or reduction ring from a piece of PVC piping. I hope this will help someone. See photo here: http://imgur.com/ZZMvXYg (updated)
