H694 Camera + Filters: Question re LP

I'm close to pulling the trigger on an SXVR-H694 + filter wheel to use with my TEC140. My question is primarily about LRGB filters for this camera. As I image from a moderately light polluted spot I have been considering the Astrondon Series E II. While the price is higher they seem to offer a bit of LP suppression in RGB due to the "gap" in transmission between G&R. Then the idea (I'm sure not original) occured to me that perhaps I could use an IDAS LP filter for luminance directly on the filter wheel rather than in front of the wheel (which for many reasons with my imaging train is not ideal). I would of course lose parfocability with luminance. Is this likely to work? Is there enough cut in lum. IR/UV for my TEC140? I also like the idea because there is less glass, less dust, fewer possible reflections. Good idea? Bad idea?

THANKS!!
Peter
