AstroSystems DEW GUARD


AstroSystems amazing Dew Guard secondary mirror heating system automatically senses the air temperature and the mirror temperature, then maintains the secondary at a preset (adjustable) temperature above the ambient air temperature.  Gently warms the secondary at 2-4 watts when on full.  The DG-1 has 4, The DG-2 has 6 and the DG-3 has 8 evenly spaced contact points for optimal thermal distribution.  Uses any external 9-15 volt dc supply or you can run on a 9v battery mounted at the holder, eliminating the need for wires across the spider.  No more heat ropes!  Three sizes to choose from.

Note: If your secondary is glued to a center post, the Dew Guard cannot be used.
