Swoop1 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) I went to polar align my HEQ5Pro tonight but found that the inside of the polar scope was condensated and insufficiently clear so failed. The misting seems to be on one side of the reticle element. I really don’t want to remove the scope as previous experience of collimating a scope to a mount was very painful. Can anyone suggest a solution? Thanks. Matt Edited December 23, 2022 by Swoop1 Wording Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swoop1 Posted December 24, 2022 Author Share Posted December 24, 2022 That was my first thought- I have a spare socket on the power box so will borrow Mrs. Swoop's spare dryer next time I go out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoop1 Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 Quick update- hairdryer did the job sufficiently enought that alignment was acheived (for now...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
