I have had the 18" Obsession to 1050X on the moon on a couple of occasions, under exceptional seeing conditions. This is with a 5mm Pentax XW in the 2.5X TV powermate. When conditions are good I often use 750X on the moon and on many DSO's. eg Homunculus, Ghost of Jupiter. This is with a 7mm Pentax XW in the 2.5X powermate.

Cheers,
John B
