I have a full compliment of Televue Powermates but only use them for Planetary imaging ( not visual )

You've got a nice set of eyepieces there. All Televue! No Naglers eh?
Generally speaking, I find the Morpheus's a bit better than the equivalent Nagler due to the eye relief comfort factor and they are more resistant to blackouts. But they stop at 17.5. I would get the Nagler 22 T4 though as I had it once and it was spectacular in a Tak FS152.
We've got to tempt you to go to the dark side!

TV Ethos I imagine are slightly better than the corresponding APM XWA but at 3X the price. I did have a 13mm Ethos in the past. Lovely but a lot of money in just one eyepiece. The APM 9mm probably gives a corresponding view to back then with a TEC180FL. Pretty close but hard to say unless side by side. Depends on how important that last little bit is to you.

Greg.
