I’ve had the first-hand experience with this, and the issue was resolved right away. And the best part of it is that you get a fast response from the support team. There is a phone number that you can call and an e-mail address just in case you can’t reach them through their phone number. The good news is that it is easy for users to reach customer support if they have questions or encounter any problems with their units. Since the Homestar Original and the Homestar Flux come from the same brand, Sega Toys, it also has the same support or warranty service. The Sega Toys Homestar Flux has fantastic quality. The matte-colored planetarium is high-quality, high mass, and stable. It comes in a white box decorated with silver prints and an additional black cover for added protection.

Meanwhile, the Homestar Flux already exudes sophistication with its packaging. It comes with a 3-watt LED light and a protective flap for the lens. The Homestar Original has a good quality finish with materials that make the device sturdy. When it comes to quality, there may be a slight difference between the two. It’s also lighter than the Homestar Original.

But between the two, the Homestar Flux has a much better projection, giving you a much clearer, sharper, and more realistic images of the dark skies. It also has two discs, but each disc contains more than 60,000 stars.įrom the looks of it, both home planetariums have the same functions. Since it has a more extensive and sharper projection, it only has a minimal focus adjustment, which is adjusted through the focus wheel. The Flux is a much better planetarium in terms of this functionality. With two discs, each having 60,000 stars, its projection only covers about 8.2 to 9.8 feet in diameter, but it doesn’t label the star images. The frame best adjusts the focus on the Homestar Original, and it should be within a distance of 4.9 to 7.5 feet from the wall to the ceiling. The focus adjustment is an essential feature in a home planetarium. The Flux, on the other hand, produces minimal noises in addition to having illuminated buttons that are visible in the dark. However, the Original unit doesn’t indicate to what direction it rotates, and it makes noises as it moves. There is also a rotation function that rotates the device to the north or south. It is activated when a shooting star appears. It means that you can watch the starry night skies while lying in bed as fall asleep.Ī shooting star function is present on both home planetariums, but the Flux is slightly updated and looks more realistic. It’s also the same timer that you can see on the Homestar Flux. For one, the Homestar Original has a timer that automatically switches off the device after 15, 30, or 60 minutes. Without a doubt, both units have outstanding features as a home planetarium.
