so you found them not to be as good as your naglers in the scope, thats interesting.!Janek wrote: But also Ethos eyepieces are not so great optically. Huge FOV and eye relief requires lot of compromises in light transmission, contrast etc..

Eamonn, I'm afraid I don't own a Powermate. In my previous post I was simply making a joke about how I had to buy the whole set so I wouldn't need to add a powermate to an already huge tall Focusser/paracorr/EP stack to fill in EP focal length gaps.
Dave, I am available for hire along with my Ethos collection. All I require is petrol money and some time with the Obsessionator
:laugh:

If youre ever down in the west with your setup, then give us a call in the club and we'll do a viewing session at a dark sky site.

Nice purchases Keith, well done! The shots with the Coke can are the 'money shots'. each eyepiece is worth how many coke cans?
