Have often wondered how a pair of doublers would work on a set of binos? Would a set of 8x50mm with a pair of doublers function like a set of 16x50mm big eyes for instance?
It would be virtually impossible to get both of the doublers each aligned with the center axis. In other words collimation would suck. I've seen it tried with the slip over style, but even with a quality screw on unit, they are not going to match either.
I would also say that they are worth owning, but they won't really replace a spotter or a big eye. They will not take up much space if weight is a concern and if you aren't pushing the optical limits too much.
