Does anyone know the tube weight of the Meade 102 ED, 127 ED and 152 ED OTA assemblies?

Thanks!

I put my Meade 152 ED OTA on a scale. This was with the dew shield, lens cap, focuser motor, Meade 2" diagonal with a 1 1/4" adapter and plug, and the Meade 50mm finder attached.

The total weight was 25.75 lbs.
