Celestron heater for 8-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, Celestron EdgeHD and Celestron Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA) is the best solution to problems with water vapor condensation on the surface of optical elements. This permanently attached heating ring allows you to conduct year-round observations and astrophotography sessions.

Unlike ordinary heating bands, this heater directly heats the optics of compatible telescopes, thus ensuring the most efficient heat transfer. The heater ring is made of aluminum and is mounted in place of the standard plastic front ring.

In order to use the full potential of this heater, it is recommended to connect it to the Celestron SmartHeat Dew Controller, which continuously adjusts the heating power to the readings from the thermistor built into the heater.
