High quality and well made telescope covers by Telegizmos. Very durable and tear resistant. The same material used on these covers was originally designed by NASA for their spacecrafts.
The TeleGizmos Solar Scope Cover is a multi-layer, polyethylene material with a fully aluminized surface. The heat reflective ability of the cover is extremely high with a material strength equal to a multi-layer light weight tarp.
The material was originally developed for NASA as an insulator in spacecraft. It is very strong, light, tear and puncture resistant and is highly superior to Mylar in durability.
The benefits of the covers are numerous:
Highly water resistant without the need of spray on sealers. Washable.
Highly reflective. True & effective radiant barrier protection.
Greatly reducing scope temperature on scopes left outside in sunlight.
They can be securely fastened to your scope with the built in draw string.
Double lap sewn seams for strength.
Tear and puncture resistant.
Our material has extreme temperature tolerance
Cover sizes are inter-changeable. The correct cover size will depend on the scope set-up. For example, a fork mounted 8" SCT will use a TG08. A fork w/wedge mounted 8" SCT will require a TG12. To determine the best cover fit, measure the scope/mount set-up and compare with the stated cover sizes.
The Standard TeleGizmos Solar Scope Covers, when used outside, are intended for temporary exposure periods. For long term continuous 365 outside exposure protection, see the Series 365 Covers.
