Dew Solving Solution- Crazy Idea?

I've been having really bad dew problems this year. My last session didn't even see the scope through it's cool down time even (1 1/2hrs) before it got soaking wet.

Hubby has what he thinks is a brilliant idea that will solve my problems, so I just wanted to know what you'll think.

He suggest a patio heater (run on gas), which (kept at a distance from the scope of course) will warm the scope and me (many of you'll will know how much I hate the cold and no doubt laugh at me ). They're only around $150 and can be multi used obviously for when one does actually have a BBQ .

Though I will be out on the open grass, I worry though that the gas fumes might do something to the mirror.

I'm close to buying one, any thoughts? Crazy idea perhaps?

(I do know about the use of hairdryers and Kendricks by the way as a way of helping dew issues. )
