Astrozap Flexible Black Plastic for Meade 10" LX-90/LX200 Catadioptrics

AstroZap Flexible Dew Shield for Meade 10" LX90 & LX200 SCTs – Black Plastic

The Meade 10" LX90 and LX200 Schmidt-Cassegrains are serious tools for serious observing—equally at home in the backyard or a remote dark site. But no matter where you set up, dew and stray light are the enemies of optical performance. The AstroZap Flexible Dew Shield is a lightweight, field-friendly solution designed specifically to fit your 10" Meade SCT, giving you longer, clearer, and more contrast-rich sessions.

Constructed from flexible black plastic, this dew shield attaches easily with a Velcro strip, wrapping securely around the front cell of your optical tube. The interior is lined with black felt, which not only traps unwanted light from nearby sources, but also slows the thermal radiation that causes dew to form on the corrector plate.

Tailored to match the diameter of Meade 10" catadioptrics, including LX90 and LX200 models, this shield won’t interfere with mounting rails or focus mechanisms and is easy to remove, roll up, and transport when the session ends.

Features:

• Custom fit for Meade 10" LX90 and LX200 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescopes

• Made from lightweight, flexible black plastic

• Felt-lined interior reduces dew formation and improves contrast

• Velcro wrap closure for fast, secure, tool-free installation

• Rolls up for compact storage and portability

• Excellent performance booster for visual and imaging work alike

Observing Tip:

Even in moderate humidity, a 10" corrector plate can fog up in less than an hour—especially if exposed to the open sky. This dew shield not only delays dew formation but also improves contrast when observing faint galaxies or nebulae under suburban skies.
