Anyone besides myself have condensation issues and If so what steps have you taken to combat it? I finished my Nexdome yesterday. I placed my CGEM on my pier and left it overnight to see how things go. This morning my mount was drenched in condensation just like I had left it out in my yard under the sky. I know the dome isn’t anything close to airtight but I thought being inside would be enough to keep things dry. I was wrong. I know I could probably just buy a cover and a light to raise the temp but I was wondering if anyone else has this issue and what are you doing to combat it. I was really hoping that once I had an observatory I wouldn’t need to cover my gear. Seems redundant. By the way, I’m in SE Louisiana, very humid, especially in summer.

A dehumidifier actually does work quite nicely in my NexDome, even with the amount of air that circulates under the dome.
