TS-Optics Flexible Dust Cover for Newtonian telescopes with 6" or 8" aperture
Dust cover for Newtonians and Dobsonian telescopes with tube diameters from 170 mm to 250 mm.
Ideally suitable for Newtonians and Dobsonians with 150 mm to 203 mm aperture Also suitable for other telescopes from 170 mm to 250 mm tube diameter Air-permeable cloth keeps dust away but allows removal of moisture and thereby quick drying of the telescope Elastic ribbon offers a good fit The dust cover can be used at both ends of the telescope Alternative usage possible as light shield for the back opening of the Newtonian telescope

TS Optics flexible Dust Cover for Newtonian telescopes and Dobsonians
Good dust protection is very important for a telescope. Otherwise the optics will get quickly dusty, especially if stored for a longer time. Just as important is good airflow. If there is residual moisture in the tube, it has to be able to leave the telescope.
The flexible dust covers from TS Optics offer optimal protection against dust and allows air circulation at the same time, as the fabric is breathable. Furthermore, the cover is very flexible, it can be used with telescope tubes from 170 mm to 250 mm.
Light shield for the back side of the Newtonian telescope: Another field of application for the TS dust cover is at the rear side of the telescope. Many Newtonian telescopes and Dobsonians are open at the back side. This allows for free ventilation. However, stray light can also enter from behind, which is annoying especially in astrophotography. The black dust cover prevents this. The air can still freely circulate, there is no accumulation of heat.
Material: | black, air-permeable cloth |

"Keep it over the cover for storage, then keep it over the fan/mirror side to reduce light leaks while imaging."

"Es ist jetzt nicht so ganz genau das was ich erwartet/erhofft habe aber es tut seinen Dienst. Ich habe ein etwas ""großzügigeres"" Häbchen mit höherer Lichtdichte, also etwas festerem Stoff erwartet, es ist aber ein sehr elastisches Elasatan(?) Dingens, welches auf den 8""-Newton grad so draufpasst. Vorerst wird es drauf bleiben, wenn ich zum Nähen komme, wird es aber durch ein lichtdichtes Leinenhäubchen ersetzt."

"Ich verwende es als Lichtschutz. Sind zwar nicht ganz Lichtundurchlässig brngen jedoch eine enorme Verbesserung."

"This product was a cost effective solution to eliminating the light leakage from behind my primary mirror of my 8"" Newtonian OTA that kept ruining my astrophotography images. The product is of good quality, breathable to accommodate my primary mirror´s cooling fan, and it does not let any light through. I am very happy with the product."

"Passt hervorragend auch auf 200 mm f/5 TS Newton und hält das Streulicht vom Hauptspiegel fern."

"Super flexibel und passgenau. Es dichtet den Tubus komplett ab. Ist aber dabei. Atmungsaktiv. Absoluter staubschutz. Ich hab es an einem 8"" Newton. Auch super um am hauptspiegel es lichtdicht zu machen bei der Beobachtung. "

"doppelt sinnvoll - Staubschutz der gerade im Winter die entstehende Taufeuchte aus dem inneren des Tubus abdampfen lässt + Streulichtschutz für die Spiegelzelle"
