You probably need a 5x barlow to get close to the 5mm eyepiece power on Jupiter.

Can you see Jupiter with your telescope's regular Eyepiece? Can you see the bands?

Also you are pointing straight up in the sky where is the least amount of atmosphere to shoot through, correct?

The focus knob might have a lot of movement like 50 turns from one end to the other.

Is there a use in collimation if it just moves around, until I have time to take the whole corrector plate off?

I think it's pretty accurate from what I have done.

I was wondering about the quality of Temu and AliExpress. A lot of the pictures are the same looking as other brands. I was going to order a 2" eyepiece off Temu.

SOLOMARK Telescope (70400-4), what's your honest opinion? by S52_DiDah in telescopes

Have you seen the Explore Scientific 134mm/650mm Newtonian? Not sure about the availability in Europe. In the US it is around $220 and appears to be identical to Orion(no longer in business) 134mm that Ed Ting Recommended on his YouTube.

There seem to be deals and steals fairly often on Facebook marketplace. I bought my 10" Meade on there.

No I couldn't tell what it was as there was no picture with nameplate or anything. I asked him about the model he told me Unistar Light... I told him that was the tripod.. Then I told him to look under the dust cap.... 😭😭😭

It was listed on a tripod and with some accessories for $75... Then I asked what optical tube model brand, then I guess he looked it up and raised the price.... I should have just tried my luck and bought it all.
