  • This product requires the use of an accessory power source not included with this product. Astrozap offers accessory power sources including a simple D/C adapter (AZ-719) or dual channel Astrozap Dew Controller (AZ-720). Astrozap has included with this Flex-Heat® an Astrozap RCA Phono to 2.1mm Power Conversion Cable (AZ-725) that will enable you to use this Flex-Heat® with other brand controllers and power sources. THEREFORE, THIS FLEXI-HEAT® DEW SHIELD IS COMPATIBLE WITH VIRTUALLY ALL BRANDS OF TELESCOPE HEATER POWER SOURCES.
  • The Astrozap Flexible Heated Dew Shield uniquely combines both active and passive methods of dew fighting with the added feature of shielding the telescope from undesirable stray light.
  • Felt-lined to help absorb moisture and to prevent extraneous light from reaching the optics and improve contrast.
  • Astrozap heated dew shields are made from the highest quality ABS-grade polymers.
  • VELCRO® Brand fasteners provide a snug fit and padded so as not to damage or scratch the telescope's finish.
  • Flex-Heat® dew shields roll up easily into a convenient size for easy transportation to star parties and dark sky sites.
  • The current Astrozap dew heater components have been upgraded to provide features and benefits that make Astrozap superior to many other brands including:
    • Heat barrier design directs heat toward the main optical tube resulting in minimal waste of heat rising into the air.
    • Optimally coated, heavy duty, durable yet flexible sheaths on the heating elements function well in both extreme cold and heat throughout observing and imaging sessions.
    • Efficient energy consumption helps your battery last longer throughout your observing and imaging sessions.
    • Stronger heater wires and wire connections protect from inadvertent wire separation.
    • State-of-the-art energy efficient heating elements last longer and apply heat uniformly over the length of the strap, compared with inferior crimped carbon film resistors.
