I have yet to test on stars/nebulae etc. So cannot say how good the mirror is as yet. One mirror supplier (not the one I bought from) wouldn't guarantee performance above 18x mag.

These are available commercially (not cheap):-

These folks support up to 20x mag with their mirror. They however sell a 9x60 in their bundle.
