If the 9.25 inch is too big, you can switch to the 8" version. I like the evolution mount because it has wifi and the battery is built into the base. That way you don't have to have a separate power source.
You can add gps if you want so you don't have to type in coordinates and date time, etc. You can also run the telescope with a computer or ipad or phone
The eyepiece kit that comes with the bundle is ok, but there are plenty of better eyepieces.
8" version
6" version
For public use, a zoom eyepiece is very handy
best phone adapter
You will want one of these focal reducers to allow for a wider field of view
For an easy to use scope for star parties 8" dob
refractor for wide field views and photography. You will still need a mount for this... up to you whether its a goto mount or not...
