Product Review

This dual light high power microscope has both incident and transmitted LED light sources that allow for both the viewing of opaque objects lit from above and the viewing of translucent specimens lit from below. Designed for students to learn science for years of continued observations, it has full optical glass elements, metal framework, two eyepieces (10X and 25X), 360 degree rotatable monocular head, and coarse & fine focusing. The microscope offers five magnification settings, 40X, 100X, 250X, 400X, and 1000X. The light sources use either an outlet (adapter included) or three AA batteries (included). This microscope is perfect for academics in home school for students in elementary to high school.

It comes with two 10-piece slide kits, each with five biological specimens and five blank slides -- great for an introduction to using microscopes. And when it's time to prepare your own slides, there is a pack of 50 blank slide with 100 cover slips, red and blue specimen stains, and a slew of tools. To make things even better, we've included the book "The World of the Microscope" as an introduction to microscopy.
