Good to know, I figured the 12.5mm might be the most you could go. Thought you may squeeze a bit more performance out if it was all collimated perfectly.

Well, that makes it easy, grab a 20mm and a 12.5mm to get started, it is less than a $50 investment and you will get some good use out of them.
Save more expensive eyepieces for when you get a better scope.

Good quality EPs with a nice wide field will help, but better waiting until you get a really good scope first.
