    Saw the above when I was looking for a magnifier -- seems my old one has disappeared.

    Appears to be a pretty good deal on Amazon for $9 -- or two for $14.36. It's a "prime" deal only so you have to be a prime member, but shipping is free.

    If you are not a prime member, you could either poke around and see if any friends are members or find one of the numerous 30-day prime free trial offers -- a quck google should pull that offer up (that's how I am currently a member).

    16.5X Jeweler's Clip-On Eye Loupe

    I use these when soldering itty-bitty stuff with bleary old eyes.

    They're pretty cheesy, but they're ALSO only $5 and they seem to work fairly well.

    Non-illuminated tho.

    I have used several "Asian" loupes, 10x to 30x, and could not recommend any of them.

    Instead of buying a couple lottery tickets :) consider Bausch & Lomb, or the Russkies:

    BelOMO 10x Triplet Loupe Magnifier - US Geological Supply

    As an alternative, go full-on dentist:

    What the heck do you need 60x for anyway?
