JARLINK Illuminated Helps to see things: my truth review

Good day!!! Recently, I have become more interested in the things that surround me and finally got to my piggy bank from the times of the USSR. I was never fond of numismatics, as such, but I decided to check the piggy bank for rare coins and ran into the problem that with the help of reading magnifiers, which I borrowed from a relative, it is not always possible to discern the nuances on the coins. And besides coins, sometimes there is a need for a more detailed study of small things and marks on them (for example, jewelry). On one of the Internet resources I ordered the delivery of a pocket jewelry folding magnifying glass with illumination 30x-25mm (NO.92530), worth 590 rubles. The box in which the Magnifier is packed is slightly larger than a matchbox. The annotation on the box and in the instructions for the magnifier was completely in foreign languages. The magnifier itself is supplied assembled with batteries inserted. On the cord of the product is a key to open the battery compartment in case of battery replacement. Bringing the magnifier into working mode is carried out by the simplest manipulation, by unfolding it. After use, it is also easy to retract to its original position. The magnifying glass is completely made of plastic. There are no glass elements. In the event of careless handling or dropping, there is a high probability of deformation or damage. Requires careful handling. The backlight is turned on by manually moving the switch. The neon light is quite bright. The loupe has a claimed 30x magnification. In my subjective opinion, the actual parameters do not correspond to the declared ones, but in order to make out the mint mark on a coin or a sample on a piece of jewelry, the magnification is enough. When used, it takes getting used to and adjustment. This magnifier is more suitable for occasional use. For those who have a hobby or work associated with the constant use of similar products, it is hardly suitable. In general, a good specimen for a home hobby. Good luck to all!!!
