Just recieved some replacement eyecup's from Kevin at Big binoc's. He had a little catalog in there with his Binocular listings. He had a picture and a description of these on the list offered at $425. They are not listed on his web site though. Just wondering if anybody has seen or used this Binocular. Looks like a big 20x90.

Contacted Kevin, and yes he is getting that Binocular is stock. Maybe next week. 18mm of eye relief in a 25x100 Binocular. That's pretty good, if accurate. I believe that the Celestrons and apogee's are 14 or 15mm. Hopefully no cutoff with the prisms. These big cheap 100mm Binocs are like big cheap Dobs; alot of bang for the buck. I basically love my 22x100's, and consider them to be a great value. Somewhat comparable to my 8" SCT with the Binoviewer, but with a whole different view. Not to mention, mounted on a heavy duty Unimount and with a recliner and a heavy blanket, it's very relaxing and a great winter setup.
