Hi. :wave:

I got one of these and live under orange skies. It helps a bit, but I still use the LPR filter a lot. In other words, it's worth spending a few quid more to get the LPR if you want certain nebulae to stand out!

N.B. LPRs don't help with galaxies or clusters (quite the opposite). With these DSOs you just have to wait for a power cut!

I have a 2inch Baader Neodymium filter and personally find to be about a useful as a `sponge leg`! All it seems to do is darken the sky and the stars without seemingly giving anything back in exchange. I live near cardiff in quite light polluted skies.
