$13 well spent. Carson mm300 MicroBrite 60-120x pocket microscope
Well it arrived today, thanks to Prime shipping.
I've got magnifiers and I've got loupes. They all have one thing in common, their underpowered and they fog up. Plus I'm shaky when it comes to holding still.
As I've gotten older, 40x isn't cutting it any more.
So when I was at my pops the other day, I saw him fiddling with his ol Radio Shack 30x pocket microscope he got back in the late 80's. A lightbulb went off and I had to go.
Searched Amazon and found this. Beautiflly clear, steady, and plenty of Zoommm...
Best 12 & change I've ever spent.
(One thing though, the image is inverted. So down is up & right is left). No if it can make rust silver, I won't need the buffer. :)
Requires (1)AA battery (not included. :(
