Once condensation appears on lenses or Schmidt plates, your image becomes dull and details disappear. It doesn't have to. The Omegon dew tape keeps your optics free of dew. So you'll see stars, planets and nebulae sharp and clear, from start to finish at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Quick to use and flexible<\/strong><br>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 - immediately ready for observation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Omegon-Dauwlint-60cm-voor-6-1.jpg\" alt=\"Omegon Dew Ribbon 60cm fully unrolled with Velcro closure and attached cable\" class=\"wp-image-93532\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Heats smartly and economically<\/strong><br>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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why it works<\/strong><br>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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Omegon-Dauwlint-60cm-voor-6-.jpg\" alt=\"Omegon Dew Ribbon 60cm mounted on telescope tube to prevent dew formation\" class=\"wp-image-93533\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Practical details<\/strong><br>The heating element is 20 mm wide and sits securely on the inside of the strap.
