Detailed Description

The Lynx Astro 50cm Dew Heater Strap is tailored to enhance your stargazing experience by keeping your telescope’s optics free from dew. Simply wrap the strap around the telescope tube near the optics and secure it with the integrated Velcro/elastic strap. The strap delivers gentle heat to the optics, maintaining a temperature slightly warmer than the dew point, effectively preventing condensation.

This heater strap is 50cm long, so it’s essential to check the circumference of your telescope to ensure a perfect fit. The modern heating element ensures even heat distribution while consuming minimal power. The outer thermal insulating layer prevents heat loss, ensuring efficient operation even in low temperatures. The 2m silicone cable remains flexible in the cold, and the RCA / Phono Plug with moulded strain-relief works seamlessly with most dew controllers.

Will I need a Dew Controller? 

A simple 12V Dew Heater Supply Cable can connect the tape to a compatible 12V power supply. When linked this way, the tape operates at full power, which won’t damage it. However, with smaller telescope apertures, it may cause the optics to become warmer than needed, potentially affecting the view and wasting energy. The best solution is to use a Dew Controller to regulate the heat, allowing for the use of multiple heater tapes as well.
