AstroZap vs Meade dew shields

Hi,

I'm in the market for a rigid dew shield for my LX200 and I'm wondering if anyone has had direct experience with the AstroZap or Meade ones? Does anyone know which one is heavier? Are they both made of aluminium? Which one has better flocking on the inside?

thanks!

I would like to know if material really matters. I got a rubber one from dewshield.com. I wont really know the effectiveness of one these shields until the weather gets warmer around here, about a month and a half.
