This Farpoint FP362 dew shield for the Celestron 14-inch SCT is a precision-sized flexible dew shield fitting the C14-XLT, C14 EdgeHD, and CGX-L 1400 mount configurations. Features a lower-dovetail clearance notch to clear the CGE-style bottom bar on CGX-L-mounted telescopes. It slips over the front of your OTA in seconds, slows radiative heat loss from the corrector plate, and keeps dew off your optics through the longest observing sessions.

Why You Need a Dew Shield
The corrector plate on a Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope radiates heat directly into the cold night sky. Once its surface drops below the ambient dew point, moisture condenses on the optic, blurring your view and ending your observing session. A dew shield extends the tube to create a buffer of still air in front of the corrector, dramatically slowing the rate of heat loss.
The Farpoint flexible dew shield is the simplest and most effective dew prevention tool you can own — no power required, no batteries, no warming straps. Just slip it on and observe.
Built to Last
- ABS polymer construction — durable, UV resistant, virtually indestructible
- Black felt lining — kills stray light reflections, won’t scratch the corrector plate
- Hook-and-loop closure — wraps tightly, removes in seconds, stores flat
- Precision-sized to the casting — not a generic one-size tube
- Lower-dovetail clearance notch — seats flush over the CGE-style bottom bar
- Proudly made in the USA
