Comments about Celestron 44801 Mini Handheld Illuminated Magnifier (10x):
Has great potential but very poor execution. The switch for the illuminating light doesn't function so when it's on, it won't turn off, draining the batteries. If you want a magnifier without a light, you can get one for about 1/3 the cost.
