The Dew Zapper Pro 4-Channel Control Module is part of the larger Dew Zapper Pro 4-Channel Dew Prevention System. Individual heating bands are sold separately from the control module.
With Dew Zapper Pro you'll never again have to quit an observing or imaging session because dew clouded up your optics. Our advanced dew prevention system powers up to four individual heating bands independently. So you can keep all of your optics — main telescope, finder scope, guide scope, eyepieces, or other optical accessories — bone dry in high humidity or dew-prone weather. Five different heating band sizes are available (see below).
The Dew Zapper Pro control module is powered by
a 12-volt field battery such as the Bintel
DC Solution, and comes with a car lighter-style DC plug on a 3.5m
cable. The microprocessor-controlled circuitry delivers pulse-width modulation
for stable, precise temperature control. Each of the four heater outputs
has its own temperature control knob with a full range of adjustment from
0% to 100%, and each has a red LED power indicator. Set the output of each
channel to provide just the right amount of heating for the prevailing
conditions.
The heating bands (sold separately) are highly
power efficient, drawing only 0.25 amps (for #3518) to 2.5 amps (for #3522)
at maximum output. A 10-amp fuse in the control module prevents any mishaps
from electrical surges or reversed polarity. And unlike competing dew-prevention
systems, the Dew Zapper Pro's heating bands have right-angle cable connections
to reduce cable strain and provide a tighter fit. Hook-and-loop fasteners
hold the bands snugly around your instrument and accessories. Each heating
band comes with a 1.8m -long cable that plugs into the control module via
an RCA-type connector. Removable caps are included to protect any unused
ports from exposure to the elements. The control module also has an auxiliary
12-volt port, which allows you to power any 12-volt accessory directly
from the module.
Don't let high humidity or dew dampen your spirits - or your optics. Get the Dew Zapper Pro today! Made in the U.S.A. One-year limited warranty.

Orion FlexiShield™ Dew Caps
A dew cap reduces the formation of dew, prolonging
your observing sessions. Orion's revolutionary Flexishield dew cap is the
answer. It is made of durable, flexible ABS plastic that won't chip of
break. It wraps snugly around your telescope tube and fastens with an easy
velcro strip. Once in place it is very rigid and won't block the optical
path. Best of all it can be stored flat or rolled up tight for convenient
storage and transport. It can be used in conjunction with a heater such
as the Orion DC Dew Zapper. It also makes an excellent lens shade when
using your telescope in daylight.
