Hello all.

Recently bought myself a wonderful Tak TOA130. Absolutely love this fine instrument.

With the coming on of autumn and winter I wondered if anyone had experiences to share with regards to dew control on refractors?

I have the Kendrik Digifire 7 controller with OTA and finder heater strips for my 12" LX200.

Is dew control necessary through winter on refractors? Intend to use my TOA for both visual and photographic work all year round including the colder months. Would love to hear any experiences from Tak owners and other refractor owners.
