Got these dessicant sachets. Lots of uses around the scope. Got two in my focuser to rid the OTA of moisture and one in the OTA cap to absorb moisture between the corrector and cap. More left for ep cases etc. They don't leak and are designed to absorb far more moisture than your average silica gel.../>http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/280935090400?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
