I just recently purchased a Celestron NexStar® 130 SLT Telescope for my wife, and I want to get the most out of it for her...I was thinking I should buy a 3X Barlow Eye Piece for it (mind you I am TOTALLY new to this) My wife and I have never even owned a Telescope before.
I was reading online that for a particular Telescope.. the "AstroMaster 130EQ" to get the best magnification possible a person should get a Omni 4mm eyepiece and a 2X Barlow Lens....

I was thinking about getting a 3X Barlow Lens, and pairing it with a really good eye piece, but as I don't know much about Telescopes, I don't even know if it would be compatible with a Omni 4mm eyepiece, or I would just get this., and call it a day...
Could someone please tell me what would be THE best combination possible for the Celestron NexStar 130 SLT Telescope?
I would appreciate ANY feedback you guys can give me!
Thank you!
