I leave my mount outside 24/7. Been out under the events with a bbq cover and a few tarps and old blankets since November 2016 with zero issues.
Had my scope, a 6”f12 Refractor on it for days on end many of which have been high 30’s-low 40’s with no problems either.

As Brian mentioned I somet8es put a white sheet over the tube on the really hot days and bring in the electrics....Argo Navis and motor controller.

I’ll put the scope away if it looks like rain, even though I messed that one up a couple of times with no problems after everything dried out.
