Desiccant Cap

It's a nice little cap. I only give 4 stars because of the price. Over priced I think for what it is.

The desiccant caps are a really great idea. They are well made and I found them convenient to use. The sales and service from Astronomy Plus is another big bonus. I’m very happy with my purchase!
