Hi Jason,
I did insulate the walls on the sunny side , condensation has not been a problem , used contact insecticide around the door. Enclosed the optical tube in a plastic bag covered over with an aircraft passenger blanket. Dob mount covered with a blanket and plastic chair cover. Has been the telescopes home for a year with no sign of condensation or insects.. pretty good when we’ve had continual heavy wet weather with La Niña.
Regards philip
