Celestron 94018 Deluxe Telescope Dew Shield with Velcro Attachment Points - Prevents Dew Formation on 6" and 8” Schmidt Cassegrain or EdgeHD Telescope Lenses, Black

Hello Fellow Astronomers, I read that this dew shield doesn't fit the 8se telescope and quite frankly, when I got mine, I also thought it didn't fit properly. I though it should have been wider so that the whole hook-and-loop section should be used and I only overlapped the hook-and-loop by about one half. Today, I decided to overlap the whole hook-and-loop section and tried attching it to my 8se. Well, what do you know, it fits snugly and the unit is now properly fastened by the whole hook-and-loop section.

I purchased this to keep the front of the telescope from becoming too exposed to the elements. It fits my Edge 80mm well and with the velcro, it is easy to apply to the scope. It is heavy duty and bends without cracking.

Good, seems to work well.

This was the les expensive model of the dew shields offered by Celestron for my telescope. I combined it with a dew shield Celestron Heater ring. As expected from Celestron it worked great with a great fit and a great dew heater the combination was great. I think that I am going to order the solid aluminum dew shield. Not because there is anything wrong with the flex system but because I use my scope often in the winter. I just feel that the hard scope cover would perform better in my application.As for the ease of use, it is a simple matter of attaching the two ends of the Velcro together. The alignment takes takes care of itself. I would recommend both dew shields. But if you use it like I do, then I would go with the solid shield with the cover.

As someone else mentioned, this BARELY fits the Celestron Nexstar 8se. It's fine, but a little more overlap would be nice. Otherwise it's good.

On a cold night where my telescope was warm, I was able to put it outside, and view through it and get no condensation on the main telescope glass. That's all you need a dew shield to do, and this does it. Its nice to have something that fits the Celestron 8se perfectly, and is made specifically for it.

It did what it was supposed to do except for some reason it seemed to cut down the amount of light I was able to gather with my telescope made it a little tougher to see things with it on. Going to buy the warmer ring and install it I think it will work much better it fits exactly like they say it will and it does keep the dew off of your lens but you need to be looking at a fairly bright object or being a very very dark place because it will cut down the amount of light entering your telescope

This is a great dew shield for the EdgeHD 8 or any other 8" SCT. It withstands a breeze and low angles without drooping. I use a HyperStar with my camera and it doesn't interfere with either. I wrap it around the SCT and long dovetail inside the padded case for travel and it doesn't have any odd bends when I take it out. I'm very happy with this dew shield.

Celestron made it fits my celestron scope. Keeps out dew and unwanted light. Rolls up to save space. Flocked on the inside to prevent reflections. Happy with purchase.

El protector de rocio es de buena calidad, el material interior es de tacto suave y evita reflejos de luz. Cubre muy bien de la formación de rocio en el telescopio, pero si hay demasiada humedad o el telescopio está apuntando hacia arriba puede llegar a empañarse de todas formas. Es un accesorio muy útil y recomendable para tener. Sin embargo, El precio me parece un poco elevado. Ya por último, yo lo uso con un Nexstar 6SE y queda excelente.

Boa qualidade e encaixe perfeito.

Wirklich tolle Qualität. Viel besser als die Taukappe von TS Optics, welche ich vorher hatte und deutlich günstiger. Wir an meinem Meade 2080 genutzt, welches von mir auf Losmandyschiene umgebaut wurde.

beautiful works well.
