The Celestron Dew Heater Ring is the ideal dew prevention solution for your Celestron telescope. This must-have accessory will improve your observing or imaging nights year-round. The Dew Heater Ring is custom fit for your 8" Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain, EdgeHD, and RASA optical tube and permanently replaces your retaining ring to provide efficient heating across the plate and so you'll never be caught without it. The process is quick and easy. The ring is constructed of lightweight, durable aluminum. Its rigid frame supports the cable circuity and the telescope's Schmidt corrector lens. Plug the ring into an external 12V DC power source for consistent, continuous heat that will prevent dew from forming. The Dew Heater Ring features two storage clips on the ring to keep the power and thermistor jacks secure while accommodating the telescope's dust cover. The Dew Heater Ring also comes with a cable management clip that connects to the telescope's front cell for a convenient location to help you corral essential cables instead of dangling and causing unnecessary weight on your corrector.
Celestron – Deluxe Telescope Dew Shield – Flexible Dew Prevention – Fits 6" and 8” Schmidt Cassegrain and EdgeHD telescopes
The Celestron Dew Shield DX is an essential accessory that protects your optical tube in the field. It prevents excess moisture in the air from forming condensation on the corrector lens. A dew shield also helps block stray light from entering the telescope for better viewing and astroimaging. Use the Dew Shield DX on your 6” and 8” Schmidt Cassegrain, EdgeHD, and RASA (with single dovetail) optical tubes with confidence.
Construction
The Dew Shield DX provides a perfect, custom fit designed specifically for 6” and 8” Celestron optical tubes. The Dew Shield is built from durable PE plastic that is flexible but strong. Extra padding has been added at the tube attachment edge to create a stronger fit on the optical tube. The felt-lined interior absorbs any additional stray light and excessive moisture, creating optimal contrast when viewing and imaging. The large dovetail cutout has been made both wider- to accommodate a 4” wide dovetail rails, as well as deeper, to create a more solid connection with the optical tube.
Attaching the Dew Shield to your optical tube is easy thanks to the Velcro attachment points. Whether your optical tube is 6” or 8”, simply adjust the Velcro for the correct fit.
