Interesting that not one post so far has listed the weight of the eyepieces they have discussed. ;<)
It reminds me of a comment I heard one night at a star party..."Does this eyepiece make my scope look fat?"
Considering that balancing a scope is a big issue, weight does matter.
Has anyone substituted a lighter weight barrel on a heavy eyepiece?
As I asked earlier - what weight do you consider too heavy? A 31mm T5 Nagler weighs 35oz, a 22mm T4 Nagler weighs 24oz. Is the 31mm heavy? The 22mm? Or how about a 27mm Panoptic at 16oz?
