Settling on TeleVue - love it

I've owned the 2.5 Powermate for a month and it's been great on splitting tight doubles (in the 2" range - tight for me). Requires a bit of scope rebalancing, though, which I was trying to avoid (my eyepieces are all the same weight, give or take 10g - K.I.S.S. principle).

I hope you catch/caught the end of the TeleVue sale, I think it ends around now. I'm driving past Bintel this afternoon - I'll probably pop in and sniff around
