I’ve attached the chart from AAVSO, seeing profile graphs and photometry images below for you to look over. Exposures with 120 and 150 seconds seem to oversaturate the target comparison and check stars. I believe the one with 90 seconds performs well and can set the exposures in B and R filters based on this!
