Compact, weather-ready protection for small telescopes on equatorial mounts.
This Standard Plus Series cover is specially designed for telescopes mounted on equatorial (EQ/GEM) mounts with compact optical tubes. It provides reliable protection during storage or short-term outdoor use, combining sealed interior seams, water-repellent ripstop fabric, and UV resistance into one lightweight, easy-to-use solution.
Size XS is ideal for smaller setups, such as ED and APO refractors (50–80 mm / 2”–3”), as well as compact SCTs and Maksutov-Cassegrains.
📏 To ensure proper fit, the combined length of your optical tube and attached equipment (such as diagonal, camera, filter wheel, etc.) should not exceed 20 inches (≈51 cm).
✅ Measure the full length of your setup with accessories installed before selecting a size.
🛡️ Perfect for:
Indoor storage to protect from dust, scratches, and humidity
Star parties, backyard sessions, and temporary outdoor use
Protection from dew, drizzle, condensation, and moderate rain
Use in sunny conditions — UV-resistant for up to 800 hours
⚠️ Not intended for long-term exposure to heavy rain or continuous outdoor storage. For extended protection, see our upcoming Titan Series.

🧭 A demo image explaining how to properly measure your telescope setup
The illustration shows the actual dimensions of this telescope cover.
These dimensions are slightly larger than the maximum recommended telescope length for this size, to allow for an easy and proper fit.
For example, the Size XS cover is designed for telescopes with a total setup length (tube + accessories) up to 20 inches (≈51 cm) — but the cover itself measures approximately 24 inches (≈61 cm) in length.
This built-in allowance ensures:
✅ Easy placement and removal of the cover
✅ A proper fit without straining the fabric or seams
✅ Better airflow and protection around attached accessories
All sizes are designed with this margin to accommodate real-world telescope configurations.
To determine if this cover will fit your telescope, measure the total length of your optical tube including any equipment attached to the focuser — such as a diagonal, camera, filter wheel, or other accessories.
📌 For Newtonian telescopes, you typically only need to measure the tube length, as most accessories point downward in the parked position and don’t add to the total length of the setup.
Please keep in mind that the overall size of your telescope depends not just on the optical tube, but also the mount type, configuration, and accessories.
There are countless combinations of telescope + mount + accessories, and it’s simply not possible to offer a pre-made cover for every setup.
That’s why we offer a custom telescope cover service — tailored specifically for your equipment.
We create covers for any telescope type or size, whether it’s a compact refractor or a large observatory-class setup.
