Hi All,
I've been preparing for tomorrows Lunar Eclipse, I've got all the main gear set up and under wraps in plastic in plastic bags to protect it during the intervening hours but I am having a problem with the lens of my scopes forming dew/frost - I use a wheely bin as an indicator and the dew is starting to freeze on its lid.
I have a hair dryer but was wondering if anyone could explain how to correctly use it to get rid of dew without degrading imaging quality or damaging any of my gear.
I have progressed somewhat, equipment wise, since my last post here, I now have a Skywatcher HEQ5 Pro Mount and plan to use a Long Perng 80mm F6 Achromat with either a 1000D or a 50D for imaging at 480mm focal length, with a Skylight B Filter (I also have a Skylight A Filter - I'm not sure which is best to use) to protect the DSLR's sensor.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
