realisticly I'm not going to get a lot of use upwards of 200x whatever I choose so a barlow is probably as good a choice.
So the14 xw and 8.5 pentax barlow well John?
thanks again

Hi Graham,
Sorry I didn't come back to you earlier. I missed your post.
Both eyepieces barlow very well in any good quality barlow.
The only rider I could add is that the 14mm XW with it's native 20mm of eye relief, IMO is just a tad "nicer" comfort wise to use in the powermate because it preserves the eye relief at 20mm.
Cheers,
John B
