>I also tested the TMB on Rasalgethi (alpha-Herculis) , an approximately 4" seperation double. To my amazement , I saw a TINY dot of light almost touching the primary. Not touching , not a figure 8 , but clearly split! I ususlly need my Nagler 12 T4 to split this double (117X). Score 2 for the TMB.

There must be something wrong with your 7-inch TMB APO if it usually needs a power of 117x to cleanly split a wide double of 4 arcseconds, such as Ras Algethi. Please check again and take high-end orthos, but not Naglers. In my 6-inch f/9 Meade ED APO, Ras algethi is cleanly split at 55x and 76x using Kasai Ortho 25mm and Baader Genuine Ortho 18mm (same as UO HD Ortho), respectively.

He said he normally needed a Nagler t12 @117X to split the double but he did split the double @ 56X with the TMB 25mm ortho. That says a lot about the quality compaired to the Nagler.
