A dew shield prevents the formation of dew on your telescope optics.
It also prevents stray light from entering the telescope.
Features include an inner black felt liner that reduces reflections for maximum contrast.
Wrap the dew shield around the end of your telescope tube near the optics and secure it with the integrated Velcro.
Dimensions are 53cm long and 19cm wide.
Please check the circumference of your telescope to ensure it will provide a good fit (a few cm are necessary for the velcro areas to overlap).

Tried three so far and these are my favorite, good strong fit not too long and thicker than most
Firstly, thanks to all at FLO for their excellent service... special thanks to Alex for his patience in answering all my newbie questions. Haven't needed to use it yet. Mine is a 5inch dew shield for my Sky-Watcher 127 AZ5. For the price it's value for money and fits perfectly.
Does exactly what it says on the can! Great service from FLO as usual.
Perfect fit on my nexstar 127 sltLooks great with a nice logo tooGreat for observing the sun tooTried it with and without - it appears to keep a lot of lateral glare out It’s adjustable not only in circumference but also has the advantage of being able to slide up and down enabling the length adjustable too All in all a very versatile piece of kit at a competitive price Well pleased …. I Like it
Bought the 5” dew shield and I am extremely pleased with it. The make up is good and high quality. Fits perfectly on my Skywatcher Maksutov 127 and the Velcro is very secure
Excellent, good quality and easy to fit.
This dew shield is a good fit for my eVscope. I should add that I inadvertently pre-ordered three of the wrong size! FLO were great in dealing with my mistake and gave me refunds without question. They will continue to be my astronomy supplier of choice.
A customer tried this 5" 53cm dew shield with a 130pds and found it to be around 5cm too short. The Lynx Astro 6" heated dew shield is 60cm and may be a better fit.
