About This Product
A lighted magnifier brings its own light to the specimen, which helps when studying insects, plant parts or metal surfaces at the bench or outdoors in shade. It reduces the need to work under a lamp when looking at fine surface detail. Laboratories and colleges in Trinidad and Tobago, Lithuania, Namibia, Kyrgyzstan, Peru and Lebanon can buy the Hand Magnifier/Lens with Light/Illumination through an export order.
