Dew shield for orion xt8

[Erik1988]

Hi I was wondering where I can purchase a dew shield for an orion xt8 , I currently attempted to use my scope , and dew took its effect. will a fan help too?

I use a homemade dewshield (sleeping pad + velcro) on my Orion XT8i. Not an ingenious construction, but it delays the dew-attack on the secondary mirror

with quite a bit. The 9x50 finder dews up immediately though.

Never experienced dew on the primary, except after observing (bringing the scope  from the cold directly into a warm room).
