Eschenbach 3x Round Mobilux LED Magnifier 60mm Aspheric Lens

Description

Mobilux LED magnifier – the professionals’ choice

Tried every magnifier going but still not sure you’ve found the best one?

Well, maybe you’ve never discovered the Mobilux LED series of magnifiers from Eschenbach of Germany. Eschenbach is a world leader in low vision aids, working closely with optical professionals to develop magnifying lenses that are virtually unrivalled for precision and accuracy. Revered for their superior optical performance, Mobilux magnifiers come in many different sizes and strengths. There is something for everybody here.

Round aspheric lens – three times magnification

This 3x model is the largest round handheld magnifying glass in the range, and comes with a host of helpful features for professional and home users. It has a 2¼”/60mm aspheric lens made from lightweight PXM plastic, with a scratch-resistant coating on both sides. As you would expect, lens quality is second to none, with superior optics and distortion-free visibility. The aspheric lens renders text and images sharp and clear, making it a comfortable magnifier for reading and inspection tasks. The lens rim and upper section are finished in off-white, a colour which easily blends into most backgrounds, thereby helping direct your eyes to the lens without any peripheral distraction.

LED illumination with different colour temperature options

A built-in SMD LED casts distinctive bright white light across your subject, enhancing contrast between letters and background so words become easier to read. ‘Step-up’ light technology maintains illumination level so you get consistent brightness when the LED is in use. Eschenbach estimates a life span of up to 50,000 hours for the LED, and a saving of energy that prolongs the life of the batteries (supplied). The Mobilux is supplied with two additional colour filters, in yellow or orange, for two additional colour temperature options over the main white light.

Ergonomic design with sliding switch

In the hand, the Mobilux LED feels solid but comfortable to hold. A black handle with soft, radiused edges, is easy to grip. A sliding switch in the centre glides up or down when you need to operate the light. You could be forgiven for taking little notice of the numbers you can see just above the switch but they contain some helpful extra information. To the left you can see the magnification strength; next to that is an additional number at the end showing the optimum working distance, in millimetres, for best text or image quality.

Additional user benefits on the handle

On the underside of the handle, a battery compartment features a simple locking clip, while inside a raised emboss diagram show which way to insert the batteries. The attention to detail doesn’t stop there. Punched into the bottom of the handle are two holes, which allow a lanyard (not supplied) to be threaded through if required. Protect the lens when not in use by sliding over the soft case, which is supplied. Also includes two AA batteries, user instructions and cleaning guide.

Hands free usage option

If you’d like to turn your Mobilux into a hands-free magnifier, an optional Mobase stand

is also available. Specially designed for this magnifier, the Mobase is made from sturdy black plastic, with two built-in positions so you can use it hands free at different magnifying angles.
