I use also a Dew Buster unit. It was cheaper than the Kendrick and has worked flawlessly for years. I don't know if those are still available. |
Sounds good. Thanks for the recommendation. The RHA only showed a bit of dew first thing in the morning and it did not show up in any images which finished at around 5am. I also did not use the scope fans. The 2nd night was windy so I took the dewshield off and this made it start to dew up a little much earlier. That was with the fans on. So it would be handy in that situation.
The thermal blankets help.

The Ceravolo has dew heaters and a controller built in so haven't needed the Dewbuster for a while, but it worked a treat on my FSQ-106ED. I like being able to use a temp sensor to dial in a controlled temperature delta.
Cheers,

Thanks for the link. That looks good. I assume its compatible with Kendrick Premium heating strips.
