Yes I agree. Prevent it as much as possible. A tube extension or dew shield is a good passive measure.

Procedurally minimising time with the tube looking up is good as well, and it helps the tube extension / dew shield work.

The next priority I suggest should be a dew heater, but that may end up more expensive than a 12V hair drier, so depending on your budget you might choose to go with the hair drier first? Up to you. If the dew is really heavy the heater is a must! I have experienced dew that recurs in less than 10 mins after using the hair drier... hopefully it's not so bad where you are?

I have and use all the above dew solutions on my C8... I tried for a long time with just a dew shield, but up here... there's just no chance!
