Controllable via ASIAIR / StellaVitacompatible ASCOM and INDIthe WandererCover V4-EC is the high-end solution for protect your optics and make perfect flats in a matter of seconds. Designed for astrophotography on the move or in observatories, it combines precision, silence, durability and a exclusive cable management for stress-free nights.
In humid areas, dew quickly settles on flap panels. Closing a wet hood can lead to moisten the inside of the tube and, ultimately, favour the development of mould on the lenses. The V4-EC incorporates a intelligent heating to keep the surface dry, protect your optics and guarantee reproducible flats, night after night.
*Automatic detection depends on installation and environment, and is not guaranteed. Avoid repetition in the event of failure, and use manual settings instead.
Golden rule choose one luminous diameter ≥ outer diameter from fog screen of your telescope.
| Model | Luminous diameter (ref.) | Typical* compatibility |
|---|---|---|
| WMFP4-80 | ≈ 80 mm | Small glasses 60-70 mm |
| WMFP4-100 | ≈ 100 mm | Bezels 72-85 mm |
| WMFP4-125 | ≈ 125 mm | Bezels 90-102 mm |
| WMFP4-150 | ≈ 150 mm | Bezels 107-120 mm / small Newton |
| WMFP4-190 | ≈ 190 mm | Newton 150-200 mm / SCT 6-8 |
| WMFP4-225 | ≈ 225 mm | Newton 200-250 mm / SCT 9.25" |

Does the V4-EC work with ASIAIR and Stella Vita?
Yes.
How can I avoid stripes on my flats?
The controller Enhanced PWM doubles the frequency and eliminates the banding from 0,1 s. Use moderate gain and adjust brightness to aim for a histogram at ~50 %.
What does the encoder do?
It gives a precise angle feedback in real time and ensures repeatability ±0.25 at each opening/closing. You can also define customized angles for your routines.
Can I use it in harsh winters?
Yes, the V4-EC is designed to -25 °C and its reinforced motor prevents gearbox failure in cold weather.
Is heating essential?
In wetlands, it protects your optics and guarantees stable flats. In NINA, control it via the "Device Actions and Commands" plugin.
