I think small scopes are very unsatisfying from light polluted locations, regardless of the quality of the optics and I suggest that really you're pretty much limited to lunar and planetary.
Exit pupil sizes under 0.5mm become difficult due to dimness of image and floaters in the eye can start to become intrusive.About 200x mag.
