Description

Introducing the ultimate flexible dew shield that lays flat or rolls up for easy storage.


Our flexible dew shields are made of lightweight durable black ABS plastic.


The interior is felt-lined to help absorb moisture and to prevent extraneous light from
reaching the optics.


Sewn Velcro strips facilitate quick wrap-around placement onto the corrector plate rim.
A two-inch rubber trim also wraps around the OTA to prevent any slippage.

    What can you say about a dew hood, it does it's job and I feel better about my lens now that I use it. It's portability was very important to me. I have quite a bit of gear and every inch of the rear of my Jeep is critical and this hood just lays flat out of the way.

    Fleable Dew shield

    Difficult to install properly. It does the job but needs refinement. Velcro hard to adjust. No instructions about installing on an SCT tube.

          This shield seems well made and with the felt lining really keep the scope insulated. The fit seems nearly perfect. I would recommend this brand.

            Easy to use.Fits well and is very rigid which is a must.I could tell an imediate improvement in blocking unwanted light.Later in the evening when the dew fell,everything except my lens was covered.I just kept on looking at the stars.Worked like a charm.
