DIY Allsky Camera using DMK31

Recommended Posts

I'm getting the parts together to build an allsky camera using a DMK31. I've got a 6 inch acrylic dome from an underwater camera enclosure which I'm mounting on a waterproof plastic enclosure. I managed to bag a bargain on ebay with a Fujinon F1 lens for about £20.

The bit I'm struggling with is how to approach dew control. The enclosure I have is quite big (260x185x125) so I have room for options. Should I use a dew tape? If so, where should I put it? The only other thing I can think off it some sort of small DC fan heater, but can't find anything appropriate.

I use a ring of about six turns of nichrome wire insulated with heatshrink sleeving, for mine. 

This is what I shall be using for my All Sky camera project. I am aiming at 8 watts in a 100mm dia. dome.
