Hi guys,

I've just bought an 8" Bintel dob and I'm also looking at a Barlow as my first add-on, mainly so I can get higher magnifications for viewing Jupiter. I'm looking at the 2X Televue Barlow (Bintel has them for $150), because I can see myself getting at least one Televue Plossl in the next few months, and I don't want buy a cheaper Barlow now and feel like I'll have to upgrade it when I start getting quality eyepieces.

Does that sound reasonable, or am I getting a bit ahead of myself for a newbie?
