Heater straps: For a clear view of the sky
The nights are notalways as dry and clear as we would like them to be. Often, the optics fog up during the night. Eyepieces, lenses and Schmidt plates: When a fine misty layer settles on your optics, the night of observing is over. But it doesn't have to be that way. Omegon heater bands keep the dew away and guarantee you a super clear view - all night long.
The advantages at a glance:
- Heater strap keeps telescope, finder and eyepieces free of fog.
- Easy adjustment: flexible tape for a perfect fit
- Velcro fastening: sticks anywhere on the top of the heater strap.
- Cinch plug with 2 metre cable
- Available in different lengths
Compact and always available
Entirely practical - at the beginning of your observing session, simply wrap the heating strip around the OTA or your eyepiece. The strip can be put on like a glove and fixed in place with its adhesive strap fastener. After observing, simply stow it back in your eyepiece case. Your telescope heater for ensuring that you always have a clear view.
Keep your optics from fogging-up
Simply connect to a suitable power source using the lead with the Cinch/RCA plug supplied. A 12V DC supply evenly distributes the energy to the strip at just 0.2 Watts per centimetre. The heating strip effectively keeps the temperature just a few degrees above the ambient temperature, just enough to ensure that dew no longer has a chance to form. It also uses minimal energy, hence sparing your battery.
The heating cable can also be connected to a pulse controller to save energy. Tip - we recommend using the Omegon controller as an accessory for dew shield heating. This allows you to connect two heating cables at once and adjust the power to them individually.
Why do optics fog-up?
Anyone who wears glasses knows from personal experience exactly what effect dew has on an optical surface. A sudden fine mist of water forms on your spectacles when you come into a warm room out of the cold - the warm air condenses onto the cold glass surface. Exactly the same thing happens on the surfaces of your telescope optics. When your optics cool down, condensed water settles onto its surfaces - time to clear the view!
Omegon strip heaters provide you with longer observing sessions. And, when other stargazers are giving up and packing up their telescopes, you can continue observing for just as long as you want!
