dew control for the non electrically minded

Hello all, last night got clear about 3am and had both my EQ 6 mounted 80mm refractors and my Alt AZ Meade SCT working- trouble was as the temp dropped the SCT was just covered in dew.
So need advice about where to go to next for amelioration. I have the scope parked the house so electricity is not a problem.
I noted that the refractors, with the dew extensions that came with them, worked well. So is it just a case of a piece of cardboard extending over the end of the Meade. Or do people advise the gadgets you can buy?
