Question for strmrdr

[TLS]

Hey Strmrdr, recently you had a post that showed a reasonably priced microscope that could be bought. I think it went to 200x and could be hooked up to your computer screen. It was 100 bucks or less. Can you tell me again what that was and where you found it?

If anyone else knows, I would appreciate it. I couldn''''t find the post that contained the info on it.

thanks!

You can tell someone is becoming obsessed when they buy a microscope just to look at their 1 diamond!! haha

Thanks!

Id love to get one but it isnt in the budget for a while.
I bet once you get it you will find a ton of stuff to look at.

bummer I just noticed it goes from 10X to 60 and then 200, so it doesn''t seem to have anything in-between. I was hoping I would be able to see 20 and 30x too.

Oh well, this still looks like a pretty fun toy to play with!

Yea a full zoom would be awesome but 3 seperate lenses give better results while keeping the price low.
A high grade 10x-200x zoom setup would make the price atleast 20x if not 100x more than what it is.
Its a trade off for the lower cost.
