Dew heater secondary mirror

[bottletopburly]

Just installed a secondary dew heater made by 4Tronix from first light optics , easily installed, wire could be Longer  in my opinion so a short tail then an extension plugs in to join to your dew heater I may email 4tronix see if they can do a single cable to required length ,also modified  a screw hole used to hold plastic trim in on end of ota to hide wire else you can’t put end cap on scope  , now just need to check collimation after re installing focuser with trimmed draw tube.

just to add. when i installed my kendrick heater, instead of wires running along the spider i bought some copper self adhesive tape of amazon, 2 x 5mm wide strips and soldered the wires to that

the tape is used is to keep slugs away from plants. was only 10 quid for around 20meters
