About this product

Model: lynxastro_dew_strap_30cm
Part Number: lynxastro_dew_strap_30cm

Lynx Astro premium quality dew heater straps, made in the UK.

Robust design using modern materials for high performance and long life!

Simply wrap one around the telescope tube near the optics and secure it there with its integrated Velcro/elastic strap. A gentle heat is then transferred to the optics until the temperature is slightly warmer than the dew point.

This heater strap is 30cm long, please check the circumference of your telescope first to ensure this will provide a good fit.

Will I need a Dew Controller?

A simple 12V Dew Heater Supply Cable can be used to connect the tape to a suitable 12V power-supply. When connected this way, the tape is essentially running on full power. This won't harm the tape, but with smaller telescope apertures, it might result in the optic being warmer than necessary, which can affect the view and waste energy. The solution then is to use a Dew Controller that regulates the heat (also enables you to use more than one heater tape).

Works well

My first dew strap! Plus into my ASIAIR Plus with rca lead. Worked a treat during a few hours of 4°c clear skies. Didn’t mark the scope and the silicone lead feels like it will last.

I have no problems with this unit and am hopeful that it will stave off the dew problem efficiently. Great advice and service from FLO, as always.

Newer design works better

18 November 2022 | Michael

Needed a new heating band. FLO were, as usual, flawless. The Lynx dew heater strap has had a small but significant design change. The power lead into tge heating element has been moved to tge side of tge end making for a much better and more secure fitting.

Works great, keeps your lens clear, could be improved by using neoprene and other robust and insulating materials but so far so good !
