Which Barlow for 14mm UWA Meade s4000

Hi everyone,

I'm just wondering which barlow would be best to use with my Meade s4000 14mm UWA (the hand grenage )????

I only have GSO plossls and I like the idea of an UWA 7mm.

I know this will be a heavy combo regardless but it would be alot cheaper than say a Hyperion 8mm.

I was considering the Orion Shorty plus which seems to be highly recomended.

I don't think I need a 2" barlow as most EPs which I would want to barlow would be 1.25.

What do people think? Would the Shorty plus and my EP make a good combo?

I know the UWA 14mm hasn't got the worlds best transmition so would I end up with a dim view if I then used a barlow with it?

Cheers,

Dave
