Filters for Binoculars

I've had some good observing sessions using my 2" DGM NPB and O-III filters.

As such I'm thinking of getting some filters for viewing larger objects with my 100mm binoculars.

they take 1.25" eyepieces (using Denk 14's and Delite 11's).

I was wondering what the general consensus is regarding filters for these type of binoculars; is it better to have a filter in one eyepiece only or should both be filtered?

I was thinking of getting 1.25" filters to screw into the barrel of the eyepieces.

I'm right eye dominant so if i only filter one eyepiece, should it be the dominant eye or non-dominant eye?

On a separate note, I'm also thinking of getting a H-Beta filter (2"). Any recommendations for brand? Was thinking of using Omega Optics (same guys that make the NPB filters for DGM) but can't see anything on their website for H-Beta...

Omega Filters

thanks
