TeleGizmos 365 Series Tripod Cover

The TeleGizmos 365 Series Tripod Cover is a three panel cover that opens full length on one side. Once wrapped around your tripod, the open side of the cover seals shut with a full length Velcro fastening system. Heavy duty 1 inch welting is wrapped around the top and bottom of the cover. A 2″ welting is used on the open seam and has the Velcro fastening system sewn on to it. Four 2 inch spring clamps are included for securing the cover to the lower part of the legs or elsewhere as needed. Used in conjunction with any TeleGizmos scope cover, you now can protect your entire system from top to bottom.

Many users leave the cover on their tripod while observing or imaging if conditions are particularly dewy. The adjustable top opening allows the user to place the cover over the mount’s motor drives and electronics, protecting these components from moisture. Accessory trays can still be accessed by opening the Velcro enough to reach inside the cover.

The TGTP fits all tripods with the following dimensions:

Leg spread up to 50 inches, leg height up to 52 inches. The maximum circumference of top opening with cover closed 27 inches (9 inch diameter). The top opening can be adjusted to a snug fit around the mount using a supplied 2 inch pony spring clamp. Three more 2″ clamps are provided to aid in wrapping and securing the cover to the tripod legs.

The TeleGizmos 365 Series Tripod Cover is designed to meet the most demanding equipment coverage needs including 24 7, 365 outside exposure. The 365 is a multi layered dual material design that incorporates our original Solar Cover material as an inner radiant barrier coupled to an outer cover made of high count, acrylic coated woven polyester. This combination of materials produces an effective cover system capable of providing years of protection, even when used outside 24 7, 365. In fact, we warranty the 365 Covers to provide this level of protection.

It’s available with 365 canvas only or with dual material with full radiant barrier liner.

The inner liner radiant barrier provides radiant heat protection, effectively protecting your equipment from radiant heat build up. Additionally, as a second inner liner it provides additional protection from water penetration.

The outer polyester cover is the highest quality acrylic coated weave. This American made material offers exceptional resistance to mildew and UV as well as superior strength and abrasion resistance. Less than 1% shrinkage or stretch assures continuous proper fit. The water resistant capabilities of this material are outstanding…tested and shown to not allow moisture penetration from a spray test at 40 PSI, 1 2 inch concentrated stream.

A year of strenuous testing in some of the harshest outside environments, including the desert southwest, Florida Keys, Colorado @ 8000 feet and the Texas Hill country has proven the 365 Series to be capable of handling all types of weather on a continuous 24 7, 365 basis.
