I highly recommend using no filter and get your eye used to looking for small details. It's amazing how much more you will be able to see.

Matt your 2 statements appear to contradict each other?
With regards to brightness, using a higher power will cut down the brightness and any glare. Obviously in bad seeing Jupiter will look mushy and soft. If you keep it at low power then, just give your pupil time to contract so it doesn't hurt your eyes
