Ice man what size Powermate are looking at ?
I assume it is for use with your 10" GSO ?
Yes, it will be for my 10" GSO @ f/5, and i'd probably be looking at the 2x @ 1.25".

I don't have any 2" EP's at this stage, and 2x will be a better allround barlow than a 5x, which will require much better seeing in general to be useful.

I just don't like the fact that it's gonna cost me $300 for one bit of gear, just one powermate..

I could get a Telrad, a white-light solar filter and a steadypix adapter for that cost!
