Say goodbye to dew and fog on your Newtonian telescope's secondary mirror with our innovative Rib-Mounted Secondary Mirror Heater! Specifically designed for ribbed secondary mirror holders, this heater ensures crystal-clear views during your astronomy sessions.

Easy Velcro Installation: Our ultra-thin, self-adhesive Velcro makes installation a breeze—no glue, no mess. Just stick the Velcro to your mirror holder and attach or remove the heater effortlessly.
Minimal Interference: Engineered with ultra-thin wires and heating elements, this heater never blocks incoming light or obstructs your telescope's optical path.
Targeted Thermal Insulation: Advanced thermal insulation directs heat precisely toward your mirror holder, effectively preventing disruptive thermal currents and maximizing performance.
Quick to install and even easier to remove, the Rib-Mounted Secondary Mirror Heater is an essential upgrade for any astronomer looking for uninterrupted viewing, even under challenging weather conditions.
Enhance your stargazing experience today—clearer skies start here!
If your Newtonian telescope's secondary mirror holder has a ribbed design, like the one shown in the image, you should choose our Rib-Mounted Secondary Mirror Heater. Keep in mind, however, that these holders come in various sizes.
To simplify your selection, we've standardized our heaters into three models based on your mirror's minor axis dimensions:
Model A: Fits mirrors with minor axes of 60mm, 68mm, and 70mm.
Model B: Fits mirrors with minor axes of 74mm and 80mm.
Model C: Fits mirrors with a minor axis of 88mm.
Please note, this heater line is new, and we're still researching existing holder dimensions. Therefore, after receiving your order, we may contact you via email to confirm the exact dimensions of your mirror holder to ensure you've selected the right model.
