Celestron Thermistor for Smart Dew Heater Controller
Take the guesswork out ofĀ using third-partyĀ heating bandsĀ or strapsĀ and increase your power efficiencyĀ withĀ the Celestron Thermistor for Smart DewHeater Controllers.
This accessory allows theĀ Smart Dew Heater ControllerĀ (sold separately) to deliverĀ just the right amountĀ warmth forĀ to yourĀ telescopeās correctorĀ to prevent dew without wasting battery. 6ā cable length accommodates a wide variety of configurations.
Ā
How it works
ConnectĀ theĀ heating band toĀ yourĀ telescope and place the Thermistor's sealedĀ probeĀ tip under the heating band.Ā PlugĀ each cable intoĀ itsĀ corresponding port of the Smart DewHeater Controller.Ā
NOTE:Ā This thermistor is not required if you are using a Celestron Dew Heater RingĀ becauseĀ the ring alreadyĀ containsĀ a built-in thermistor.
Ā
Enhance your setup
We also recommend adding a dew shield to your setup. While not mandatory, a shield will cut down on the amount of power the Dew Heater Ring needs to keep the optics clear.
