6mm Shoot Out

I've been after Floyd to test out the 6mm Teton planetary eyepiece but he's been too busy playing with his pixels and the weather at Pinos and in my town has been too windy/cloudy to do it myself but tonight it's a different story. I've got my 6" antares F6.5 refractor cooling outside and I'll report on the 6mm Teton eyepiece up against a UO 6mm ortho and an expanse 6mm widefield ocular. The expanse already suffers from a spike of light emanating from bright objects but will the Teton 6mm do the same?
Stay tuned...

Good going Rod, I knew you would get a night. It is drizzling here, no sky at all.
