My Daystar Quark Chromosphere with OEM bolt case, USB power cord, OEM international power adapter, and OEM box. Very low hours. I purchased it in May 2018 from a user who picked it up for the August 2017 eclipse and never used it again. I estimate my use in Alaska at less than 15hr. I am guessing a total of less than 24hr power-up lifetime total. I only used it for visual, but took a quick hand-held cell phone image through the eypiece today of two nice flares as attached.
I am getting out of H-alpha so here is your chance to get a Quark in great condition.
I am selling because:
- Just not enough sun time here in Fairbanks.
- An increase in my own eye “floaters” is making the small exit pupil of this system really tough on me.
- I can’t get used to the Newton’s Rings seen in visual. I can tune them mostly away with the rheostat setting (in dead center, neutral position), but I can’t “unsee them”. Lots to read about the Daystar Quark Rings on various astro forums.
For all of these reasons, you can pick up a very nice Quark for a reasonable price.
