Subj: MAGNEFIED RING LAMPS
Good evening QRP'ers (or are we QRP'ees??)
I was in our local Sam's Warehouse (Dallas area, may be called something else
in your area) over the weekend and happened to see that they are carrying a
magnefied ring lamp on jointed arms. The lens is a 3X, and a cursory look at
it showed it to be of pretty good quality. There was no abnormal distortion
near the lens edges as seen on many cheaper lenses. The lens is about five
inches in diameter. The lamp is an eight inch florescent ring lamp. It was in
the office equipment display area. Price was $34.99. Looks like a good buy to
me and just what my 49 year old eyes need for working on some of this tiny
stuff.
