.."power crazy". Yes, in no time I was shoving a 6mm eyepiece into a 2x barlow and looking at Venus as it sank to the west -
I mentioned "which of the Messier objects" because they are a diverse set (
http://www.deepskyobserving.com/ ) and the magnification you would want varies very widely.
Don't know why the experts haven't jumped in yet, so I'll rabbit on. I think your LX200 has a focal length of 2500mm? Therefore your 26mm eyepiece is giving you about 96x. I think there are objects (say M42) where you want to be down more around 40-50x. But there are others where you would like to be up around 400x, maybe?
Anyway, I think we have the message - you want some higher magnification options.
