  • Daystar Battery Pack for Quark - 22.4ah

    The Daystar Battery Pack for Quark delivers 22.4ah of portable power, specifically designed to run any Daystar Quark solar filter at its required 5V. With a high-current 2A output port, it supplies the necessary 1.5 amps your Quark requires for stable heating, while a secondary 1A port offers additional flexibility for other field accessories.

    All-Day Power for Your Quark: 22.4ah Capacity

    This 22.4 amp-hour capacity provides more than enough power to run a Daystar Quark filter for a full day of solar observation and imaging. Since a Quark draws approximately 1.5 amps to maintain its etalon temperature, this pack ensures your filter remains stable from sunrise to sunset without needing a recharge in the field.

    Dual Outputs for Field Flexibility: 5V at 1A and 2A

    The battery pack features two USB output ports: one rated for 1A and another for 2A. To ensure your Quark receives sufficient current for its precision heating element to function correctly, you must connect it to the designated 2A output port.

    • Dedicated 2A Port: Guarantees the 1.5 amps needed for the Quark's internal etalon heater to maintain its precise bandpass for high-contrast views.
    • Standard 1A Port: Available to power or charge a smartphone or other small 5V accessory while you observe.

  • How long will the 22.4ah Daystar Battery Pack run my Quark filter?

    The Daystar 22.4ah Battery Pack provides enough power for over a full day of continuous use. A Daystar Quark draws about 1.5 amps, and the pack's capacity ensures it will not run out of power during an extended observing session or solar event.

    Which USB port should I use for my Daystar Quark?

    You must use the 2A output port for your Daystar Quark. The 1A port does not supply enough current for the Quark's internal heater to operate correctly, which is critical for maintaining the filter's narrow bandpass and achieving high-contrast views.

    Can I use the Daystar Battery Pack to charge other devices?

    Yes. While the 2A port is occupied by the Quark, the secondary 1A port can be used to charge a phone or power another small 5V USB accessory in the field.

    I'm planning to observe an entire solar eclipse with my Quark. Is the Daystar 22.4ah Battery Pack sufficient?

    Absolutely. A solar eclipse lasts several hours, and this 22.4ah battery pack is designed to power a Quark for more than a full day. You will have continuous, stable power for the entire event without any risk of interruption.

    Will this Daystar battery work with my Lunt solar telescope or just the Quark?

    This battery pack is specifically designed to provide the 5V USB power required by Daystar Quark filters. It is not intended to power telescope mounts or other solar telescopes, like those from Lunt, which typically require 12V DC power from a different type of power source.

    Does the Daystar Battery Pack for Quark come with all the necessary cables?

    Yes, the package includes the cables required to charge the battery pack itself and the specific power cable needed to connect it to your Daystar Quark filter.
