About Magnifying lamps
« on: September 08, 2012, 06:51:07 pm »
Hi guys, so what diopter do you go go for?
I'm wondering how short distance you would only have with 10 diopter so i'm thinking 8?

I have such a lamp with an 8 diopter lens. Just a few hours ago I used it to check a PCB I just etched. It is excellent value for money but if I could spend a lot more money I'd rather have a 6x stereo microscope on a boom or a Mantiss (but now I start drooling quite badly  :P )

There are small lies, big lies and then there is what is on the screen of your oscilloscope.

Luckily for me a Onehunglow with a great white lens cost about 20USD not including shipping  :P
