See http://www.cloudynights.com/topic/48...clave-plossls/

The claim was made in an ad in the US S&T. I don't think Clave ever made that claim. I bought direct from Clave as it was cheaper against the French Franc. I remember once testing against a 15mm Panoptic on a globular and the 16mm Clave went deeper with a 10.1" f6.4.

I also tested a 6mm Clave against 6mm Brandon and 6mm Radian on the same 'scope. The target was Jupiter and I went back and forth many times between eyepieces and in the end concluded that each was showing the same amount of detail but the Radian was by far the most comfortable with its 20mm eye relief.
