  • Dew-Not Heater Strip - .965" Eyepiece

    The Dew-Not Heater Strip for .965" eyepieces is a 4.5-inch long solution for preventing dew, drawing 2.1 W of power and 0.18 A of current from a 12V DC source. This USA-made strip features a 3.5" heating element and connects via a 6 ft power cord.

    Thick-Film Heating for 0.965" Eyepieces

    Designed specifically for 0.965" eyepieces and finderscopes with 1" optics, this 4.5" heater strip uses thick-film technology. Unlike simple resistance wires, this design provides heat across 66% of its surface area, resulting in more even heat distribution and no localized hot spots or burnouts often associated with resistance wire heaters. The heating element itself is 3.5" long.

    • Secure Fit: A Velcro closure gives a flexible, secure fit around the eyepiece body.
    • Efficient Design: The strip is cloth covered with foam insulation on the outer side for maximum efficiency and performance.

    12V DC Power and a 6 ft Cord

    The Dew-Not heater operates on standard 12V DC power, and draws 0.18 A. The attached 6 ft (1.83 m) power cord ends in a molded RCA plug.

    • Standard Connection: The cord terminates in a standard RCA plug, which is compatible with standard dew heater controllers (sold separately).
    • Power Draw: The strip is rated at 2.1 W at 12 V DC.

  • What eyepieces does the Dew-Not DN001 heater strip fit?

    The Dew-Not DN001 is specifically designed to fit 0.965" eyepieces and finderscope eyepieces (1" optics).

    How do I power the Dew-Not DN001 heater?

    The heater strip operates on 12V DC power. It comes with a 6 ft cord that has a standard RCA plug at the end. You plug this into a compatible dew heater controller (sold separately), which then connects to your 12V battery or power supply.

    What is the advantage of a thick-film heater in the Dew-Not DN001?

    Unlike resistance wires which can create concentrated hot spots, the thick-film heater in the Dew-Not DN001 distributes heat more evenly. Sixty-six percent of its surface area emits heat, so there are no localized hot spots or burnouts.

    How long is the Dew-Not DN001 strip and its power cord?

    The heater strip itself has a total length of 4.5 inches (11.4 cm). The power cord attached to the strip is 6 feet (1.83 m) long.

    What do I plug the Dew-Not DN001 into?

    Its RCA plug fits standard dew heater controllers (sold separately). A controller lets you regulate the power sent to the heater.

    How does the Dew-Not DN001 attach to an eyepiece?

    The Dew-Not DN001 features a simple and secure Velcro closure. You wrap the flexible strip around the body of your 0.965" eyepiece and press the Velcro ends together for a snug fit.
