Congratulations and I hope you get much more enjoyment.

While I am truly biased, I will say that for me the best accessory (and my wife will attest that I have too many) was an adjustable height observing chair...it made a world of difference for me in comfort which in turn positively impacted my overall viewing experience...can't imagine using a 6-15 inch Dob without one ever again...
Agree. Just bought an adjustable height bar stool for $65 for my 12"LB.Should make a huge difference in comfort for all night observation.Still waiting for sky to clear but. Another accessory you might want to consider is a narrow band pass(nebula)filter if you observe mostly in your suburban backyard. Nebulae really stand out as if under dark country sky.
Enjoy your new toy
