congratulation for this mod!

For the daystar ERF, as far as I know, they are not IR blocking, so be carefull!

Hi Jong,
Well done and congratulations on the mod. Your English is an awful lot better than my Korean, not to mention your images.

that's better than nothing, but as you can start to see, above 1200nm this filter is not blocking enough for visual. Photo, ok but visual it's not safe enough.

You'll find many topic in this forum regarding this issue....
