  • Daystar Quark 2"/1.25" Male Silver Snout Pack for Camera Quark or Scout

    The Daystar Quark 2"/1.25" Male Silver Snout Pack provides essential telescope compatibility for your Camera Quark or Scout, including one SZ41 1.25" snout and one SZ42 2" snout. This pack is the required accessory to mount your Daystar solar imager onto any astronomical telescope, allowing you to switch between different instruments seamlessly.

    Connect Your Quark to Any 1.25" or 2" Focuser

    This snout pack is the dedicated interface for mounting a Daystar Camera Quark or Scout solar observer onto a standard astronomical telescope. By threading directly onto the front of the Quark body, these snouts create a secure, male barrel that inserts firmly into any 1.25" or 2" focuser drawtube.

    The pack includes both the SZ41 1.25" snout and the SZ42 2" snout, ensuring you have the correct size for any telescope in your collection, across refractors with 1.25" or 2" focusers. This eliminates the need for separate adapters and guarantees a solid mechanical connection for solar imaging and observation.

  • What is the purpose of the Daystar Quark 2"/1.25" Snout Pack?

    This pack allows you to connect a Daystar Camera Quark or Scout model to a standard astronomical telescope focuser. It includes both 1.25" and 2" male snouts to fit virtually any telescope, providing the necessary mechanical interface for solar imaging.

    Will this Daystar Quark Snout Pack work with the original eyepiece Quark?

    Yes. These snouts screw onto the front of a Classic Quark or a Camera Quark.

    How do I install a snout from the Daystar Quark Snout Pack?

    Installation is simple. You select the correct size snout (1.25" or 2") for your telescope's focuser and screw it directly onto the front female threads of your Camera Quark or Scout body until it is snug.

    I have a small 80mm refractor with a 1.25" focuser. Which piece from the Daystar Quark Snout Pack do I use?

    For your 80mm refractor, you will use the SZ41 1.25" male snout. It threads onto your Camera Quark and inserts directly into your telescope's 1.25" focuser, providing a secure connection.

    If I upgrade to a Celestron EdgeHD 8" with a 2" focuser, can I still use my Camera Quark with this Daystar Quark Snout Pack?

    Not recommended. The Quark is rated for F/4 to F/9 refractor telescopes and is not suited for SCT or dob application. The SZ42 2" snout lets you use a 2" refractor focuser; on instruments of 80mm aperture or more, use an Energy Rejection Filter.

    Does the Daystar Quark Snout Pack include both sizes, or do I have to choose one?

    The pack includes both. You receive one 1.25" snout and one 2" snout, so you are prepared for any standard telescope focuser without needing to make a separate purchase.
