Review on MOYSUWE Microscope Electronic Soldering Compatible by Michael Crossman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Useful tool for USB microscopes

This microscope is useful for soldering and other repair work and for observing objects at low magnification. This is convenient for educational activities with children: show them their fingerprints, or the red threads on a dollar bill, or the general structure of the sheet, and take photos for them to admire later. The real reason I want this is to play around with small objects. I called it a microscope but that's probably wrong as the maximum magnification isn't high enough to see cells or even capillaries. However, this is more than any ordinary magnifying glass I have ever used. The controls on the display and the "remote control" were easy enough to figure out with a little fiddling. I looked in the manual and saw that I didn't miss anything. The battery lasts long enough to be useful. I haven't tested how long it lasts on a full charge; "Long enough to get the job done" was all that mattered to me. I have a small problem using this soldering microscope: the clear plastic cover can get in the way when moving the soldering iron. (Setting up and following the steps of soldering and mounting the iron to the mount, observing how close the tip is to the sheath doesn't help as I was paying attention and the problem is I'm not paying attention. )

Pros
  • Allow general viewing
Cons
  • Very expensive
