Celestron 44801 Mini Handheld Illuminated Magnifier (10x)
The Celestron Mini Handheld Illuminated Magnifier is a multi-faceted tool that can be used in a wide variety of venues. For the hobbyist (pro or amateur), it can examine everything from stamps and coins, to small detail on fabric and stone. For jewelry, it can be used to explore faults and assist in repairs.
When it comes to home use, use it for examining cuts, and other skin ailments. And, if you're a outdoor enthusiast, in the field, it can aid in exploring plant-life, bugs, rocks and other wonders of nature.
The multi-coated glass provides a clear, crisp image while minimizing flare. The LED illumination generates a bright field within which to examine small objects. The powerful 10x magnification can pick up small details you might otherwise miss. When not needed, it folds neatly onto its "shell" ready to be stored in your desk, gear bag or pocket.

Comments about Celestron 44801 Mini Handheld Illuminated Magnifier (10x):
I was looking for a magnifier to inspect jewelry and coins in detail. The 10x magnification is very clear and allows you to see all the detail that you need to on coins and jewelry and the LED light really makes a big difference. I only had it a few weeks but so far so good. By the way, the only negative is the light switch that the other reviewers commented on but the light works much better than I expected - I wouldn't be without it.

Comments about Celestron 44801 Mini Handheld Illuminated Magnifier (10x):
I just received this loupe and have been looking at flowers and stamps. It is about the same size as two other loupes I've used, but much, much sharper - you can see every little printer dot on stamps. The light is much more useful than I realized. I wasn't looking for a loupe with a light, but now that I've seen the benefit, I'll never go back. The objective side has a ring illuminator made of several LED's and a diffusing ring. The switch feels a little flimsy but it works fine. It comes with a nice carrying case and tool to help change the batteries.
