Ensure Clear Views with the Celestron Dew Heater Ring for 6" Telescopes

The Celestron Dew Heater Ring is a vital accessory for any astronomer using a 6" Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope. This innovative device is designed to prevent the formation of dew on the corrector lens, ensuring clear and unobstructed viewing or imaging sessions throughout the year. The ring is engineered to permanently attach to your telescope tube, replacing the existing retaining ring, making it an integral part of your setup.

Key Features:

• Direct and Efficient Dew Control: The Dew Heater Ring heats the corrector lens directly, offering the most effective way to prevent dew buildup, unlike other methods that heat the lens cell.
• Seamless Integration with Your Telescope: Designed to permanently mount to your telescope, the ring provides a streamlined look and ensures it's always ready for use.
• Advanced Temperature Monitoring: When used with Celestron Smart DewHeater Controllers, the integrated thermistor continuously checks the corrector lens temperature, allowing for precise adjustments.
• Sturdy and Lightweight Design: Constructed from durable, lightweight aluminum, the ring provides stability and support for the telescope's lens and cable circuitry.
• Organized Cable Management: Includes a storage clip and a cable management clip to keep power and thermistor cables neatly organized and secure.
• Easy Installation Process: Installation is straightforward and quick, with instructions provided for a hassle-free setup.
• Optimal Performance with Smart DewHeater Controller: For the best dew prevention and energy efficiency, pairing the Dew Heater Ring with a Smart DewHeater Controller (sold separately) is recommended. This combination uses the ring's thermistor and the controller's sensors to regulate heating based on environmental conditions, significantly reducing power consumption and extending battery life.
• Recommended Addition of Dew Shield: While not essential, adding a dew shield can further reduce the power needed by the Dew Heater Ring, enhancing the clarity of your optics with less energy usage.

The Celestron Dew Heater Ring for 6" telescopes is an indispensable tool for maintaining clear and crisp views, free from the effects of dew, making it a high-quality, integrated, and essential accessory for your celestial viewing equipment.
