Hi Everyone,
Wow - everything from calculating dew and freze points to $15 do it on the cheap heater controllers in this thread...

What is my point? After people discover that I design electronics in my day job, I have been approched to suggest / help / design dew heater controllers for some of my Astronomy friends. (I actually designed a heater system for a telesope in Antarctica once, but that is another story)

OK, happy to help, but I am not going to build 5 different models on Veroboard in my kitchen. If we can get a minimum of 10 people interested in getting a professionally designed and built dew controller together, we could start a project.
Problem is can we find 10 people wanting the same requirements?
Goal is to get a quality controller for significantly less $ than buying one from the shop - final price depends on quantity and features as usual.

Post a quick reply or send me an email if you are interested and include a note on the key elements you need to have in your controller.
If there is enough interest I might open a new thread for this.

Clear skies,
Peter
