Product description

Protective covers from Geoptik

Sometimes you need to be able to leave your telescope to stand outside - perhaps to take a break or simply when leaving the telescope set up and aligned for use next time, e.g. on the terrace or in the garden. But, within a short period of time, your beautiful instrument can become wet with dew. And, even if it is kept in a sheltered area, it can also slowly accumulate dirt.

Geoptik covers come in very handy for solving these problems.

The new gold covers are made from a Mylar foil that reflects the heat of the sun. This material was developed by NASA as an insulator for the Space Shuttle and is therefore extremely tear-resistant.

Some specifications:

- waterproof

- washable

- highly reflective (preventing overheating of the telescope under the cover.)

- inhibits condensation on the telescope when under the cover

- extremely tear-resistant and so very durable

- thermally stable - in particular, the material does not become stiff in extreme cold.

Customer reviews

High quality product

Here, in southern Europe, the Sun goes very high in the sky by day time and it
can easily damage a black scope (like mine) if left mounted without proper shielding.

The Geoptik cover is very good at reflecting the Sun, no direct radiation reaches
the scope, but the scope warms 5 to 10C degrees over air temperature because
the cover gets very hot and it transfers some energy to the scope by diffusion. Not a
big issue most of the time.

The 180cm version is really big, it fully covers my 8" newton on EQ mount, no way for
moisture to get inside.

Materials are high quality and build quality is also high.

A good purchase.
