My thoughts are that anyone with a dob here looking for a second scope may be better served by a short focal length refractor for rich field viewing. The longer f10 types are closer to the focal length of the dobs and wont do anything better than what your dob does, and be considerably dimmer and shakier.
A long fl refractor on an eq3 with aluminum legs will be diabolical.
