I was observing 47 Tuc the night before (10/11) and had 3 across the FOV during a short session, for a total of 8 that night. Certainly adds some extra thrills
Impressed at what you can resolve with the 10" GSO, which I also own, at higher powers than I tried on the night (or ever)! So 454X is equivalent to a 2.75mm f/l EP at 1250mm f/l of your Dob? What EP(s) did you use to get that magnification? I'm a beginner, but I stopped at 9mm (138X)! Image was still clear and no doubt I could have pushed it further, but I found the wider FOV nice on that object. Once I'm adept at collimating, and perhaps with a 10:1 focuser..
