Seymour Solar Film????

[Mariner]

Hi, just wondering if anyone has used Seymour Solar Film and if so what are your thoughts. I have some I was going to use for the upcoming transit but decided not to risk it for something that I had not read too much about? Reviews of it seemed OK but, I would like to know more....

Seymour filters doesn't seem to be a popular as those using Baader film or glass like Thousand Oaks. They will have to be safe or would have been banned long before now.

I have a Celestron filter using Baader film for my C8 and Thousand Oaks for my 127ED and ST80. They give completely different views. The Baader image is off white. The TO one is red/orange, and I think I prefer it.
