Desktop Magnifier Lamp

The human eye is a powerful tool of observation but even it needs a little help when trying to get a close look at what’s happening on the millimetre scale. A magnifying glass is greatly helpful when soldering tiny electronic components together or painting a miniature with a thin brush. These Desktop Magnifier Lamps are wonderful companions that allow Makers to work with intricate electronics and other highly detailed hobby projects.

This Desktop Magnifier Lamp has an 11W light fixed under a powerful magnifying lens with a simple flap cover. In comparison to some minute electronics, our own big hands get in the way every time and cause silly mistakes as we work. Magnifying tools like these both shed light onto your workspace and enhances your vision. You can focus on extremely finely detailed work, such as SMD soldering while seeing precisely what we’re doing each step of the way.

Warning: Please note that, although many of us used to play with magnifiers and sunlight, it’s easy to forget that magnifiers can in fact be quite dangerous if left in a sunny location, as the lens can inadvertently focus the sunlight to start a fire or cause damage in other ways. As such, be sure to store this away from direct sunlight, and always keep the lens cover closed when the unit is not being used.

Typical Applications for Desktop Magnifier Lamp:

With the widespread use of optics and magnification for a wide range of different industries, it makes sense that this Desktop Magnifier Lamp can be used for almost any intricate and finely detailed work that you need to do. Whether it be electronics, sewing crafting tiny play-dough people or simply taking a REAL close look at things you find interesting, this magnifier is ready to magnify whatever you need. As such, while we primarily stock these magnifier lamps for electronics work with fine detailed SMD components, we have found ourselves using them for almost any instance in which we need to take a much closer look at things. Makers find the Desktop Magnifier Lamp is a great aid for tricky post-processing work such as painting miniatures. So, if you’re often struggling to focus on the fine details when working with intricate or hard-to-see parts, or if you just feel that getting a closer look could benefit you in your hobbies, crafts or professional work, this desktop magnifier lamp is a great tool that won’t let you down.
