Unless you plan on doing imaging, the 4x powermate will be too much for visual use. You simply wouldn't be able to use it on any eyepiece shorter than 20mm focal length, cause it will just give you too much magnification that won't be useable unless conditions are absolutely perfect (1 in a thousand event).

The 2x is the way to go.
