Telrad Dew Shield+ with Mirror for Finders

SKU CH-DEKJ-FW25S

Protects finder optics from dew with a flip-over shield that includes a built-in right-angle mirror for comfortable viewing

  • Protects glass plate from dew and moisture
  • Flip-over design allows quick deployment and storage
  • Integrated mirror enables right-angle viewing
  • Reduces neck strain when locating targets
  • Durable construction from trusted optics brand Telrad

Purpose and audience

The Telrad Dew Shield+ fits directly onto a Telrad reflex finder to block dew from forming on the glass plate. It is intended for amateur and professional astronomers who observe for long periods in humid or cooling night conditions and want uninterrupted reticle visibility.

Sustained-use behaviour

The shield remains in place throughout an observing session and can be flipped over the glass during breaks without removal. When rotated backwards the integrated mirror provides a right-angle view of the reticle, letting the observer keep a comfortable posture instead of bending over the telescope tube for hours.

Build and daily implications

Constructed from durable materials by Telrad, the accessory withstands repeated flipping and outdoor exposure. The flip-over mechanism and built-in mirror add versatility without extra parts to carry, so the finder stays protected and ergonomically usable night after night.

Questions about this item

How much additional weight or bulk does the Telrad Dew Shield+ add to the finder when left on all night?

The shield is built from lightweight, durable materials and uses a flip-over hinge, so it adds minimal mass and profile while protecting the glass plate during extended sessions.

What specific finder base or mounting footprint does the Telrad Dew Shield+ require to attach?

It is designed to fit directly onto the Telrad finder’s existing glass plate and housing, using the unit’s native dimensions for a secure, tool-free connection.

Will the integrated mirror maintain a clear, undistorted reticle view when used with an older Telrad finder body?

Yes, the high-quality mirror flips into a right-angle position, delivering an erect, true-to-scale reticle image regardless of the finder’s age, provided the glass plate dimensions match.
