Current visual magnitude of Iapetus?

Hello all,

Is anyone who has observed Iapetus over the weekend able to confirm that it is currently no fainter than mag. 10.5?

I ask because I think I saw it on Saturday, due north of Titan (relative to the ring plane), and just visible in my Skymax 127. I reckon 10.5 to be the limiting magnitude with that scope under my skies, which would mean Iapetus would have to be at the brighter end of its range of 10.2 to 11.9.

Thanks!
