The Geoptik multilayer telescope covers protect your equipment from weather, sun irradiation and dirt. The external layer is highly reflective (it is similar to Mylar) and blocks 99% of the sun's heat keeping your telescope cool. A second internal layer in LDPE increase the rigidity of the cover, it offers extra puncturing protection and it reduces the condensation of dew at it improve insulation. The low friction coefficient of LDPE does facilitate the condensation water to trickle down.

In summary:

  • Heavy duty tearproof material
  • Highly reflective surface
  • Double layer for a better insulation
  • 100% waterproof

A good dust & heat protector

So far I have used my large cover just in my backyard. I have been quite pleased with its performance, keeping temperatures from climbing much above ambient, and shielding from dust and pollens.

It's a well-made cover. There are two layers, the outer one reflective, and the inner one semi-transparent. Both are made of heavy-duty plastic sheet that seem quite durable, and so far, have resisted snagging and tearing on less-than-blunt corners. It has survived some moderate winds without visible damage. I would recommend it if you need to leave your gear set up during daylight hours.

Beats the Heat

I purchased the Geoptik scope cover to attend a multiday club event at Boondooma Homested in southern Queensland, knowing the daytime temperatures were going to be in the mid 30's I didn't want my C11 CPC to cook in the midday sun, the scope cover worked a treat, we placed a thermometer inside the cover to see how effective the insulation worked, outside ambient temperature was 36 C, inside only 1 degree warmer at 37C.
Highly recommended.

Works well outdoors

I left mine out doors since I bought it 2 months ago. Covered my RASA8 and photographic equipment. It’s light weight though so no sure how long it will last. I tore it down with a bungee cord

Effective dust cover and suitable for light rain

Quite robust and effective in protecting precious gear. Suits my setup as I need to store it in a dusty environment. I wouldn’t use it as an outdoor cover for extended periods though. Looks impressive!
