Well I finally received the last two eyepieces to complete my Takahashi LE collection, a HI-LE 2.8mm & LE 10mm. Just playing around with numbers I figured I could push my APOMAX 130 f/12 refractor to about 560X with the HI-LE 2.8mm.

I remember reading a user of a TEC MC250 f/20 claim to have push his scope beyond 800X and getting stable planetary images of Jupiter & Saturn. He acknowledge that the seeing conditions were perfect, a rare event.

What is the highest magnification that you pushed your scope to?

Also, good to see Takahashi eyepieces finally coming with dust caps attached.
