Omegon Dew Ribbon 30cm for Eyepieces and Objectives

Omegon Dew Ribbon 30cm - Keep your optics clear all night
A fogged telescope, eyepiece or lens can quickly ruin your observation. Once condensation appears, your image becomes dull and details disappear. It doesn't have to. The Omegon dew tape keeps your optics free of dew. This allows you to see stars, planets and nebulae sharply and clearly, from start to finish of the night.

Quick to use and flexible
Wrap the dew tape around your eyepiece, lens or telescope. The flexible design always fits snugly. Velcro closure keeps the tape securely in place. Compact and convenient - ready to use immediately.

Heats smartly and economically
Connect the dew tape to a 12 V DC power source. It heats your optics only a few degrees above ambient temperature - just enough to prevent dew formation. It consumes little power, so your battery lasts longer. You can also connect it to a pulse controller to save power and manage multiple ribbons at once.

Why it works
Condensation forms when your optics cool and moisture from the air hits them - just like glasses on a cold night. The dew tape keeps the temperature slightly higher so water droplets don't form. While others are already packing up, you can continue observing.

Practical details
The heating element is 20 mm wide and sits securely on the inside of the strap. The band itself is 44 mm wide, black on the outside and red inside, and made of sturdy cordura/nylon. The cable is 1 m long and connects with an RCA plug.
