a top dog. The only dead dog: a 10.5mm Pentax eyepiece that had one small sweet spot

Orion sells a red LED light on a keychain that works nicely for me. Very
small and portable, so holding it in my mouth is never an issue. Swallowing

Of course, then there's the time my wife turned on the 800k flashlight on
the powertank for my scope to light the way to the porta-potty. You could
hear the screams for miles...
She doesn't do that anymore :-)
