Just a thought - something else to consider is whether you might need an additional "attachment" between the tripod and the binoculars and hence need even greater weight carrying capacity. For example, a parallellogram mount or swing arm arrangement. One of the issues for a tripod alone is that, once you start moving up higher in the sky and especially at zenith, you do have to contort your head and neck to get under the eyepieces.

Good luck
