AstroZap Light Shroud for 10" Meade LightBridge Truss Dobsonian

The 10" Meade LightBridge gives you the sweet spot of portability and performance—but its open truss design is an open invitation for stray light, dust, and dew. The AstroZap Light Shroud is the upgrade your scope deserves, sealing the gap between your mirrors to deliver a darker sky background, better contrast, and cleaner optics.

Made from a breathable, stretchy nylon blend, this shroud is designed to block intrusive light from nearby houses, streetlamps, the Moon—even your own red flashlight—while allowing internal heat and moisture to dissipate naturally. The fabric resists sagging, won’t intrude into the optical path, and features elastic-sewn ends that grip the upper and lower OTA sections securely without slipping.

Field-tested and double-stitched for durability, this shroud folds down flat to pack away easily between sessions. It’s a small change that delivers big results—especially under less-than-perfect skies.

Features:

• Custom-fit for the 10" Meade LightBridge truss-tube Dobsonian

• Blocks stray light and boosts image contrast for deep-sky observing

• Breathable, moisture-resistant stretch fabric helps control dew

• Elastic ends ensure a tight, sag-free fit with no clips or cords

• Double-stitched seams for long-term durability

• Folds flat for compact transport and storage

Observing Tip:

Don’t underestimate the power of a good shroud—especially on nights when you’re chasing faint galaxies or nebulae. Even under a relatively dark sky, shielding your light path from ambient glow can mean the difference between spotting a faint target or missing it entirely.
