LS130MT Flagship Kit — 130mm Universal Solar & Astronomical Telescope The finest solar telescope Lunt makes. Observatory-grade performance. Nothing else comes close.

There are solar telescopes. And then there is the LS130MT.

At 130mm of clear aperture through a professional-grade FLP51 ED triplet objective, the LS130MT Flagship Kit operates in a class that has no meaningful competition. This is the instrument that serious solar observers spend years working toward — the telescope that reveals the chromosphere not as a feature to observe, but as a landscape to inhabit. Paired with the LFPT internal double-stack module and its <0.28Å combined system bandpass, it delivers chromospheric contrast and resolution that very few human beings have ever experienced outside of dedicated research observatories.

This is also, without modification, a world-class astronomical refractor. Remove the solar module and the LS130MT becomes a 130mm f/7 FLP51 ED triplet — 910mm of premium focal length delivering planetary detail, lunar topography, and deep-sky views that most observers never encounter outside of observatory eyepieces. One instrument. Two disciplines. No compromise in either.

The Solar Experience

Point the LS130MT at the Sun with the LFPT double-stack active and the chromosphere opens up in a way that demands a moment of stillness before you begin observing. The scale of what 130mm of aperture collects — combined with <0.28Å bandpass that strips away everything except the precise hydrogen-alpha signature — produces a view that experienced observers consistently describe as transformational.

Supergranulation cells resolve as a structured, living network rather than a diffuse background texture. Individual intergranular lanes become visible at the boundaries between cells, tracing the magnetic skeleton of the chromosphere. Plage regions surrounding active areas glow with an intensity that reveals their magnetic field concentration — not as a uniform brightness but as a complex, internally structured landscape of knots and threads. Filaments show multiple dark strands with distinct boundaries, suspended above the photosphere in magnetic channels whose geometry becomes legible at this aperture and bandpass. Active regions display their full magnetic architecture — penumbral flows, light bridges, Ellerman bombs — in real time, evolving visibly over the course of a single observing session.

Prominences at 130mm and <0.28Å are extraordinary. Internal threading resolves from base to tip. Flow patterns within prominence plasma become traceable. Structural evolution — the slow rotation of a hedgerow prominence, the accelerating unraveling of an eruptive event — becomes visible on timescales of minutes rather than hours. The Doppler True dual pressure tuning system lets you shift through the hydrogen-alpha line with precision, watching the entire chromospheric landscape respond in real time as you scan from blue wing to red. This is not solar observing. This is solar science.

The Night Experience

Remove the H-alpha module and the LS130MT becomes a different instrument entirely — though no less impressive. The 130mm FLP51 ED triplet at f/7 delivers 910mm of focal length with the colour correction and contrast that serious planetary and deep-sky observers demand. Jupiter's cloud bands and the Great Red Spot in high-contrast colour. Saturn's ring system with Cassini Division resolved on steady nights. The Moon as a geological landscape — crater walls, rilles, and ray systems rendered with the sharpness that only premium apochromatic glass can provide. Globular clusters resolved to their cores. Double stars split at the theoretical limit of the aperture. The same instrument that showed you the chromosphere in extraordinary detail by day reveals the universe in extraordinary detail by night.

Purchased individually, the components of the LS130MT Flagship Kit retail for over $11,300. The Flagship Kit price of $9,995 represents a saving of over $1,300 — everything you need, configured and ready to observe at the highest level.

Easy to Maintain & Highly Versatile
Color: Black, Size: 6 Tier(13 inches)
Literally so convenient. Okay first off easy to install / setup, just a little time consuming is all. But it holds soooooo much, each basket is a different category. I have this in my bathroom closet to hold all my toiletries, perfumes, and other things. Everything is so organized now & not just thrown into a drawer. Before I used this as my closet I used this as something to store my hobbies but I decided to just put those in my closet in boxes. So you can basically use this as anything, ooh I would also use this to store plants, the wheels lock in place when you don’t need them and they unlock when you want to roll it, so you can place it anywhere & move it any time you want. Very versatile. The bins pull out but they don’t pull out all the way. The bins have holes so it’s breathable as well for anything you store. This is actually very high quality & it’s actually easy to wipe down (considering that it’s plastic). 10/10 would buy again!

Perfect for tight spaces and surprisingly sturdy!
Color: White, Size: 6 Tier(13 inches)
I am beyond impressed with this 6-tier storage cart. I was looking for something to maximize the vertical space in a very narrow gap, and this fits like it was custom-made. What I love: Quality & Durability: The carbon steel frame feels very stable, and the safety stops on the drawers are a game-changer—you don’t have to worry about the baskets falling out when you pull them. Design & Aesthetics: The wood top gives it a premium look that blends nicely with my decor, unlike all-plastic utility carts. The white finish is clean and bright. Ease of Use: Assembly was straightforward, and it rolls smoothly even when fully loaded. I also appreciate the 6 side hooks for hanging smaller items. Versatility: The drainage holes in the baskets make it great for the bathroom or laundry room, but it’s cute enough for a craft room or kitchen too. If you have a small space that needs serious organization, this is definitely worth the investment. It’s functional, high-quality, and looks great!

A great product!
Color: Black, Size: 6 Tier(8 inches), Color: Black, Size: 6 Tier(8 inches)
This storage cart really maximizes the space going up. This rolling cart is taller than me; I have 8-foot-tall doors, and you can see from my picture how tall this is. It is lightweight, rolls smoothly, is easy to assemble, and is a great value. You can place heavier or taller shampoo bottles on the shelves; they are pretty steady and not loose. The way this is built, the shelves are sturdy (they have 2 metal poles underneath giving them support). They also don't slide all the way out, so you don't have to worry about pulling it out too far and having things fall. This is a really great product, and I plan to use it in my master bathroom for all the extra stuff we have.
