The telescope side is made with material that does not mar or scratch the telescope's finish. An adjustable velco attachment permits a snug fit for efficient application of just enough heat to keep the objective above the dew point when used with the Astrozap Dual Channel Dew Controller.
The Dew Heater Strap will draw full amperage when used with the Astrozap DC Adapter.
Although the element can be connected directly to 12V, we recommend using a controller (see examples below)").
It allows operating the heating element at lower power settings for optimal seeing prevention and battery capacity saving.
