Esthetics aside, they do command quite a hefty price, IMO, for an unknown product. This just might be cause for interest; they might be excellent. I'm still hoping for Lawrence Sayre to get a hold of one of these and give us a shoot-out with the TV powermate, TV Barlow and Meade Telecentric barlow. I'm admitedly not a barlow fan, but Lawrence always makes it interesting to read about them.




I'm taking Barlow donations to "fund" this shootout. No refunds is my price, but you will get the report if I get all of the Barlows. I already have the 2.5X Powermate.
