    I have been thinking of buying a magnifier with a light for some time now. Today, while looking into a row of boxes at this morning's market, I saw this one. I bought it right away, and at the next stall I bought 4 Phillips AA batteries for another $1.00.

    Works like a charm.

    I was surprised to discover how expensive this particular magnifier is...

    No more squinting in bad light trying to examine something.

    Thanks for looking.

      nutsa - I bought my loupe from France. I've had it a long time now. There are all sorts of magnifications available for all sort of different purposes. How strong of a loupe are you looking for?

      Try carrots they are cheaper.!

      nutsa - you need a jeweler's loup. Maybe there is something here for you. I don't know where you live, so this is a UK site.

      This is supposed to be one of the best loupes:
