the difference is within the margin of error +-1.5%

the opposite result where found when Gijs measured

swaros figures are 90% for both,

Every thing else equal, in theory, a 10x with a little bit thicker glass
would have slightly lower transmission than an 8.5x

Yup. And I don't quite understand why people *still* refer to Allbino's figures on transmission. Quite a few of their results are so clearly way, way off that I don't trust their figures really.

Gijs' figures seem me to be much more reliable.
