The Celestron Smart DewHeater and Power Controller 4x is Celestron's new addition to their dew control range for keeping dew away from your corrector lens. Strappable onto your telescope's tripod leg or a telescope mounting plate, the Celestron Smart DewHeater and Power Controller 4x and associated optional accessories can be used to monitor and control the temperature, humidity and power of your dew rings from this all-in-one module. Compared to standard dew heaters, the Celestron Smart DewHeater and Power Controller 4x takes into consideration real-time ambient temperature when directing power to your dew rings to prolong battery life. While this device is built for use with the Celestron Dew Heater Rings range (sold separately), you can use it with third-party dew heater rings. Celestron Thermistors will be required (sold separately) if you wish to utilise third-party dew heater rings and monitor real time data.   Furthermore, with the integrated 12V DC power output ports, you can control your entire telescope setup from this device. One of the port has a variable voltage of 3V -12V. Altogether, this device can handle a load of 240W or 12V 20A. Each power has individual fuses in case of overdrawn current which protects your devices.  The Celestron Smart DewHeater and Power Controller 4x can be controlled through your telescope's compatible Nexstar+ or StarSense hand controller, or with a  PC.    Full Specifications Dew Heater Ports 4x, ports, RCA jack, compatible with Celestron Dew Heater Rings and other 3rd party vendor heating straps Thermistor ports 4x ports (one for each dew heater port), 2.5mm Audio jack, compatible with Celestron Dew Heater Rings and optional Celestron Thermistor 12V DC power output port 3x ports, barrel connector jacks (5.5mm/2.1mm), 7A max for each port Variable DC Power Output Port 3V-12V variable output, barrel connector jack (5.5mm/2.1mm), 5A max USB Port 3x ports, USB 3.2 Type A ports, up to 2.5A output for each AUX ports 3x ports, allows connection to Celestron mounts for HC control, also allows connection of optional accessories PC port USB 3.2 Type B, allows connection to PC for control with CPWI 12V DC power input port Threaded barrel connector jack, 5.5mm/2.1mm, 10A max input High current 12V DC power input port XT60 jack, 20A max input Included power cable Cigarette lighter plug on one end, XT60 plug on other end, 10 ft. long, 20A fuse protecte Environmental sensor Measures ambient temperature and humidity, integrated into enclosure "bridge" to thermally isolate Enclosure construction Aluminum with integrated fan Clamp Fits CG-5 and CGE dovetails (also can be strapped onto tripod leg) Electronic protection Fuse protected, reverse polarity protected, low voltage cut-off Weight 1.4 lbs (635.02 g) Dimensions 177.8mm x 114.3mm x 82.55mm (7" x 4.5" x 3.25")   Recommended Accessories Celestron Dew Heater Ring - 6-inch Add a Celestron Dew Heater Ring - 6-inch to control dew on all compatible 6-inch SCTs.
