Another sidewalk test proposal

This eyepiece sidewalk testing is interesting, but seems incomplete. Why not repeat the test, only this time, put the caps on the eye end and turn the eyepieces over so sky illumination shines on the field lens side?

Do the results agree with your previous tests? I'd like to know.

Regards,

Russ,
I proposed the same question. Would it make a difference if the light was passing through in the direction it was designed to travel?
I will see if that is possible. Might be a little had to achieve with the smaller lens size, but what the heck.
