I broke out my welding lens to look through. Worked very well. I can believe most of texas feeling the hurt since 'we' think we're immune to most health and safety warnings published forthe general public.

Was the shade in your lens at least 12 I hope?

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Nope. 10.

Mine too lol. I know that isn't technically enough, but we aren't talking instantaneous damage like a laser here. You need to be much more careful around stuff like that.

Regular UV radiation is a gradient, like going outside without sunblock. You're gonna burn if you are an idiot about it. Don't stare at the thing for 60 minutes straight. We looked, we saw, and then we stopped looking.

Yeah i just looked at it from about 80% to the diamond ring stage. Not more than 5 minutes

I mean that is the stage most likely to cause damage, since there is a bit less light so your eyes dilate to take in more, but it is still just as intense.
