Maybe when I catch up with him we can compare the UO 2 incher to my Celestron Ultima 1.25" in use with 1.25" eyepieces. It helps to have a planet around to observe though
Hello here I am
The University Barlow I have is very very good. I have not had a chance to compare it to a TV big Barlow. Hope to over summer. We are having a bad winter
The few times i have used it. Very pleased with the Images
People say Oh don't bother with a 2" Barlow and wide field EP's
I say rubbish the views i get a very good and sharp. I still get a good field and eye relief. I highly recomend this Barlow.

I got mine from Daniel he was very helpfull. The UO Barlow is half the price of a TV Big Barlow. And I reckon just as good.
