Review on Pack of 2 ZHSX 40X Illuminated Jewelers Loupe Magnifier - Full Metal Foldable Jewelry Loop Magnifying Glass with LED Light for Currency Detection and Jewel Identification - Type Lupe by Amanda Castillo

Revainrating 4 out of 5

40x magnification is enough for a small 25mm diameter magnifying glass. Lots of great features.

I liked the look and the size. Very legible small details. I liked the plastic storage box. I like the black light function. The magnifying glass itself is larger than a small loop on a keychain, but will fit in your pocket, but not for tight pants. So it's better to leave it on a chain connected to a belt loop rather than in a pocket. Large trouser pockets should be there because they will fit without warning. One small issue is that the LED on/off button is very small and it hurts to slide it with the side of your finger to turn on the backlight. Please note that one case has the regular LED light on and the other is for black light, a great achievement to have these lights! That hard switch can be a good thing since it won't accidentally turn on and wear out the battery, but it's one of those hard-to-push switches. Note to manufacturer: Please change the design of the printed box. This type of highlighted seal on your box needs to be removed (FULL METAL magnifying glass). It's not very clear or easy to read. This makes the items inside look cheap. Also improve the instructions in it. The large slide button on the light switch also helps a lot,

Pros
  • Magnifier with LED lights allows you to see objects clearly in the dark or in dim light. A jeweler's loupe can be used to detect counterfeit bills, passports, credit cards, and travelers checks.
Cons
  • Available in white only
