I have used both Lava's lenses and have seen the lenses Kiyoukan is proposing. The big ones are easier to use. I have even made a custom acrylic lens holder for the Lava lenses....and they are still a PITA to use !! The Lava lenses are 3x...Kiyoukan's are 6x....the 6X do a better job of taming the optic.....so....I guess we do need a better wheel.........that said....the 2mmfL lenses from Dave ARE the way to go.....We have experimented with all types of optics for almost 6mo....IMHO.....the optimal combo is Kiyoukan's C-Lenses and Daves 2mm fL aspherical collimation lens. And...vertical stacking is also the way to go.
