spot on but you will have to get a lens holder
its not one you can just screw in to the thread that's there so I have been told
The correct lens simply screws straight in, Daren. The lens is a Yukon NV MT Objective Lens 24mm, part no. 29051. I believe it works out at 1.7x on the Bresser. They're about £35 quid if you can locate one.

When taken out of the packet, it looks like 'that's never going to fit', but it does. They have plastic threads, so fitting needs to be done very carefully.

Gives a wider field of view (22 degrees), but less distance, for the same illumination.

Sorry Daren, I think we're at cross purposes here.

I've just read the op's post and whereas he means to use as an add-on, I purely meant as a spotter.

You are of course quite right when you say that a lens with an even lesser mag would be more suitable, when used as an add-on.
