  • Model: Kendrick Dew Remover Heater for Meade 12 SCT, & Tubes from 13.5" to 15.5" OD (340mm to 400mm OD)

Review Kendrick Dew Remover Heater for Meade 12 SCT, & Tubes from 13.5" to 15.5" OD (340mm to 400mm OD) / Kendrick:

The Kendrick Dew Remover System is centered around the standard controller, which is required for activating the heater. (not included) The heaters have been built to use only as much power as necessary and thereby not waste energy. They have sponge insulation on one side to prevent heat being lost into the atmosphere. The heat is directed into the optics instead and because of this, less energy is needed to keep your optics moisture free. The heaters wrap around your objectives, label side out and are held in place by elastic/Velcro attachments. (Telrad heaters are held in place with an elastic band. The heaters for secondary mirrors are placed on the backside of the secondary and can be held in place by using the polyester batting found inside the secondary mirror holder. The. 965", 1. 25" and 2" are considered eyepiece heaters. [+]
The 2" are also heaters for camera lenses and certain binoculars. ).

Review Lumicon 48mm UHC Ultra-High Contrast narrow bandpass filter for 48mm / Lumicon:

The Original Lumicon Ultra-High Contrast narrow bandpass filter (24nm) isolates just the two doubly-ionized oxygen lines (496 and 501nm lines) and H-Beta line (486nm) emitted by emission and planetary nebulae, while blocking the rest of the overall spectrum of light. The result is extreme contrast between the black background and the delicate photons of nebula light needed for near-photographic views of the Orion, Lagoon, Swan and planetary nebulae, among others. This makes the Lumicon UHC Filter the best all-around nebular filter on the market today. See for yourself - it's truly amazing what the Lumicon UHC filter allows you to see! Lumicon tests every filter individually on a Perkin-Elmer Double Beam spectrophotometer, inscribing on the filter its % transmission for each of the primary lines.

Review Lumicon 48mm Oxygen III narrow bandpass Filter for 48mm / Lumicon:

The renowned, original Lumicon OIII narrow bandpass filter (11nm) isolates just the two doubly-ionized oxygen lines (496 and 501nm lines) emitted by planetary and emission nebulae, while blocking the rest of the overall spectrum of light. The result is extreme contrast between the black background of space and the delicate photons of OIII light needed for near-photographic views of the Veil, Ring, Dumbbell and Orion nebulae, among other objects. See for yourself - it's truly amazing what the OIII filter allows you to see! Lumicon tests every filter individually on a Perkin-Elmer Double-Beam spectrophotometer, inscribing on the filter its % transmission for each of the primary lines. Not intended for photography (use the Lumicon Deep Sky Filter).

Review Kendrick SCT Laser Collimator / Kendrick:

Kendrick makes Collimators that can be used with Schmidt Cassegrain, Maksutov Cassegrain and Maksutov Newtonian telescopes. For SCT owners, the 45 degree face gives you a clear view of the collimator from the supplied adaptor. Included in this version is a #2067 SCT Laser adapter which adapts the 2" collimator to a standard SCT visual back. Instructions are included with each unit. SCT collimators have a small gummed label included to mark the face of the collimator. The laser is a class IIIA, 650 nm laser diode of less than 5 milli watts. It is considered safe for consumer use, but you should avoid letting the beam enter your eye, directly or after reflection from a mirror. It is OKAY to look at the scattered light from the red spots where the beam hits the mirrors. The collimators take two AAA batteries (included). There is a one year Kendrick warranty for defects in materials and workmanship on the collimators.
