Hi Kevin, IR is good value. Did these last night and the night before. Hazy Wednesday with a bit of moon but still no problem. Even less subs than Ha. I can do 1h on each panel. In Ha would take me at least double that to get a good SNR plus when the air is moist skyglow gets worse. With IR I'm less affected and can just boost contrast to match subs taken at the zenith with the ones taken closer to the horizon with almost no resulting noise.
