Reading your setup routine above, you might be interested in this Sky Watcher illuminator I found which fits over the end of the Polarie polar finder and illuminates the reticle. I bought one and it works well. It has really good control at minimum brightness levels so the stars aren't swamped. Quite pricey for a small plastic gizmo but it's worth it if you're using your polarscope regularly.
