What's the verdict on the various deep sky general purpose nebular filters? Essential, reduce light by too much? The offerings I'm looking at are:

* Meade Nebular Broadband 911B
* Orion Sky Glow 05658
* TeleVue NebuStar BFH-200
* Thousand Oaks LP-1
* Lumicon Deep Sky LF3020

going roughly from cheapest to most expensive. What's your experience been with these?

Depends a bit on what size scope you're looking through and what object you're looking at but here's a good review:
