Subject: Power Source for Thousand Oaks Telrad Heater?


As I'm dissatisfied with the effectiveness of my Telrad+ dew shield, I'm
interested in this particular option. What I can't figure out, though, is
its power source.

Does it hook into the Telrad's battery, or something else?

Thanks.

Hi:

You power this with one of the dew system controllers, a Kendrick, a
DewBuster, etc. The phono plug will plug right into a jack on one of
these controllers.

Flick your Bic and hold it under the Telrad. Works everytime :-)

Thanks, Rod. I take it I'd need to buy one of the above as a separate power
since then.
