Glad you asked!!!!
Well, I didn't even open the box on the first night... and after spending all the next day moving furniture (and in that there were very few patches of clear sky that night), I decided to open the box as there was a bit of clear sky allowing Venus to poke thru...
So after getting up off of the ground from rolling around laughing at this goofy piece of gear, and then my having to field comments from friends on how I now have something in common with our President Trump... a comment about me "Putin" it together... and a few comments on it being made from salvaged gas pipe from Chernobyl... I was absolutely dumbfounded on the view!
Keeping in mind that we had poor skies anyway, I couldn't believe how crisp the view was... at the 33X that the 15mm eyepiece offered, the crescent was as crisp as I'd ever seen it, and the rest of the sphere was dark with a beautiful fairly bright outline... I had the Barlow it came with handy and put that in place... 88X ... the view was just about as good... a bit less crisp, but hey, whatcha want for stove pipe, right?
Overall... probably the best $$$ I've laid down on a whim...
Its pretty awkward to be leaning over all of the time for extended periods of viewing... and the 2 little pieces of strap metal with holes in them used for the 'finder' system has a lot to be desired, but this is a fun conversation piece that is quick and easy to assemble, light enough to carry around, and because of the respectable view, will probably get a bit of use for those spur of the moment clear sky fixes...
Thanx!
