5mm C- x-cel EP

I can't find any reviews of the celestron 5mm X-cel EP at cloudynights.
Does anyone have experiences
with this EP?

Personally, I like it. But I'm in the minority.

It has 20mm eyerelief, which is great for a short-focal length
eyepiece. I found it much easier to use than the Plossls of similar
focal length (and, based upon price, the basic plossl is what the x-cel
series is competing against). However some folks have trouble keeping
their eye on the "sweet spot."


i have one of these, and i like it too.
adorama has a really good price on these eyepieces.
i prefer the x-cel eyepieces over plossls.
