No contest on resolution of optics, the TOA's 150mm has the advantage there... as the resolution of the binoscope remains that which a 120mm scope can deliver but it will be interesting to actually see them side by side.
Phil and I both have Panoptic 24mm pairs so that being the closest we will use them.
In the TOA150 they give 46x, 3.26mm and 1.48º
In the TSA120 they give 38x, 3.16mm and 1.78º

Should be fine for such an informal comparison....

Obviously the main differences are that Phils binoviewers will dim the image each eye receives (reputedly to about the same as a single TSa120) while the 'binocular summation factor' theory, if it really happens, should make the views in the Bi-Tak stand out more than the 120mm aperture suggests.

I promise neither of us will do any self harm should the other scope provide a better view
