Product Description
Schweizer’s innovative new hand held magnifiers bring quality, technology and design to the world of optical magnification. Several new features help them provide a great option for the low vision user. The ERGO-Lux MP (Multi Power) mobile series comes in a choice of 11 different powers, ranging from 6D (2.5X) to 56D (15X). In the lower powers, rectangular lenses are available in either an angled or a straight head. LED illumination evenly disperses over the entire viewing area, thanks to the multi-chip SMD LED technology which provides an even spread of light and the precise adjustment of light intensity. The brightness level can be controlled with the 2 step Multi-Power boost switch. The smooth gliding button offers 2 levels of illumination, with an audible click to mark the different steps of illumination. This battery operated magnifier works on 3 AAA batteries (included, for greater convenience.) 18 hours of illumination offered at the lower power of illumination, and 10 hours at the higher level.
The 24D / 7X handheld ERGO-Lux handheld magnfier, featured here, has a 55mm (2.1") diameter lens, and a 1.6" focal distance (the working distance between the lens and the paper.) It falls in the mid range of magnification and lens size.
Increase the functionality of your 7X magnifier by turning it into a hands free stand magnifier with the use of an optional plastic stand. Insert the magnifier into the stand, and it becomes a hands free stand magnifier, allowing you to read hands free, without compromising the image quality. This optional base must be purchased for the specific strength of a given magnifier and will set the correct focal distance for that power. The stand alone base for the 24D/7X ERGO handheld magnifier is model number 160242. This base can also be used in an upright position to allow the user to do hands free work in front of the lens.
