Thanks for the info! Appreciate it. Better to be able to watch something with something cheap than nothing with something expensive! LOL.

Hi Gary, I was using Pentax 2.5mm XO @ approx 142x mag. Yes quite a lot of magnification for this tiny scope, in fact not many scopes can put up with this eyepiece (too much power), but this tiny Tak handled it with ease, makes you think you are looking through a bigger scope.Gary wrote:Cool!
