Dave,
I know exactly what you mean and they keep growing on you. As your time with them increases you will like them more and more. A superb product and worth every single cent of the high price IMO.

Glad you liked that one as well. Another of my favourites.
If the few of us yell loud enough and long enough, others may realise there are companies in the world in addition to Televue who make outstanding eyepieces. There are many good choices, it isn't the closed shop that many people seem to think it is. Televue make some great eyepieces, but there are others just as good and some better in certain focal lengths and applications.
As I mentioned in another post a few weeks ago, the 21mm Denkmeier eyepiece I used out at Coonabarabran is also an outstanding eyepiece and worth a lot of consideration if your looking for either a 14mm or 21mm focal length eyepiece. The big advantage of the Denkmeier eyepieces is they are only 1/2 the size and weight of the Vixen LVW's and superb optically with 20mm of eye-relief.
