Hey!
I got one of those $14 telescopes!
Not too bad for looking at the moon for the price. IMHO those would make a decent inexpensive spotter apparatus.

0.o thahts awsome wehr did you get it ? probably you did the deal of yor life or this isnt actualy an real teleskope mirior (maybe it has some kind of an extrem destortion you wont even notice for such an use(telescope miriors have to be precicse to the scale of some nanometers))

It is nearly perfect, there are some very very minor scuffs, I got all the finger prints off of it. This was for sale as a scrap item for $79:-)

wtf ??? whre did you ge this hughe telescope mirrir and do you have any idea what such an miror is worth ? it hurts me to see it being used as an sun colector (i hope something is badly wrong with this mirror so it couldnt be used for an telescope anyway)

That telescope …
That telescope mirror may have a short focal length but it is meant to be coupled with a convex secondary mirror which yields a long focal length in whats called the cassagrain design. The hole in the center is where the light goes after the light bounces aff the secondary and the image would be formed behind the main mirror. I’m guessing the mirror came from either a Meade or Celestron “Schmidt-Cassagrain” telescope. What a shame. These are excellent telescopes.

I think the main point here is that it’s not how focused you can get the light, but rather how much total light you can get to hit your panels. Maybe if you were using steam then it might be more important to have a hotter focal point.
Have you thought about going into business building these things for people and getting them off the grid? If you could install a setup like that for say $10k, you could finance over 5 years and the consumer would basically get it for free.
