Power Requirements:
Operates on 12V DC and requires a compatible dew controller (sold separately). Works with most industry-standard controllers, including Thousand Oaks systems.

The heater strip draws 0.30 amps at full power (power consumption at normal operating levels will generally be much less). It has a permanently attached 4′ power cord that is terminated by an RCA plug for connection to the control unit.

Compatibility:
This 1″ x 6″ dew heater strip fits 2″ eyepieces and finderscopes over 50mm aperture. The flexible wrap allows for a secure fit across a range of barrel and housing sizes.

Observing Tip:
For best results, activate your heater strip before dew begins to form. Proactive warming keeps your optics dry longer than trying to recover after theyve fogged.
