I've had a few people from the boards round my house to date and, to be honest, I wouldn't trust half of them! :wink:

8" LX200GPS w/tripod.
16" LX200GPS w/GigaWedge, 10" steel pier and 24" concrete post.

Thousand Oaks dew controller w/ AstroZap heated shield on the 8".
Thousand Oaks dew controller w/ Dew-Not heaters strips for objective, green laser pointer, and eyepieces on the 16".

StellarVue RACI finder on 8".
5mW green laser pointer in finder bracket on 16".
12.5mm Lumicon illuminated reticle (used straight-up in 8", and w/ 0.5 Atik focal reducer in 16").

Meade microfocuser and Van Slyke M1 focuser; 2" WO enhanced diagonal.

TV 55mm Plossl, 41mm, 27mm and 19mm Panoptics, 12mm T4 and 11mm T6 -- for DSOs.
UO 25mm, 18mm, 12.5mm, 9mm and 7mm volcano-top orthos -- for planets.
16mm and 8mm Konig flat-tops, 17mm and 8mm TV Plossls, 8mm RKE, 7.5mm and 5mm Tak LEs -- for no particular reason. (Many probably to be sold -- as well as one of the Naglers -- as soon as I figure out which ones ;) ).

Lumicon 2" DeepSky and UHC filters.
Several Lumicon 1.25" color filters.

12V heated motorcycle vest. Kendrick Ultimate III observing chair.

A few of these things I'm still waiting on (GigaWedge, 55mm Plossl, 12mm T4, 25mm & 9mm orthos, but I thought it'd be more meaningful to see them in context. If the 12mm T4 works out, I'll probably sell the T6 and smaller TV Plossls to finance a 17mm T4.)
