ExploreOne 300x-1200x Microscope Kit (Gray)

Help young explorers discover the world around them using the 300x-1200x Microscope Kit from Explore One. This comprehensive beginner's microscope kit includes a compound microscope and a multitude of accessories to get kids started on their learning path. The compact, lightweight, and ergonomic microscope features a straight viewing configuration with 7.5x, 15x, and 30x objectives and a 40x eyepiece that produce up to a 1200x magnification power. While the samples can be placed on the square stage with two holding clips and illuminated with the bottom illuminator (LED/Mirror), the young observers can switch objectives on the turning nosepiece to change to a magnification that best suits their needs. For convenience and ergonomics, the viewing angle can be changed by readjusting the angle of the scope's back. The square sample stage also features a filter wheel underneath for contrasting specimen slides with filters of different colors. The LED illuminator of this portable cordless microscope is powered by two user-supplied AA batteries. The scope has an arched back that can be used as a carry handle and includes multiple accessories and a booklet with suggested experiments to provide a complete introduction to scientific microscopy.
