Customer Reviews
Reasonable quality for the price
I would prefer if the lenses were just a little bit further from the eyes. It seems to me that being this close puts a lot of strain on my eyes.
However, lenses are decent, you can see clearly trough them. Stereo view area is decent. You have maximum magnification (4.8x) only on one eye (right one, but it looks like that can be easily repositioned to left eye with just a screwdriver).
Head band is surprisingly not uncomfortable (sorry for double negative, but it is exactly that, not uncomfortable. It is not really comfortable either...maybe bearable is the best word) especially from the point of view of what kind of material it is made of (cheap plastic, unpadded, and in hands feels like it will scrape your scalp off). Still, when on head, it is just slightly annoying.
This is my first visor so i can't compare it to something else. Let's just say that this one is usable but i think i expected something more. At least it was cheap so i am more-less satisfied with this purchase :)
Nice Item
Works well, and it is was as expected. The multiple magnification choices provided by the multiple lenses is nice.
Downsides: You need to be VERY close to focus at the higher magnifications, and the lights from the lamps are a bit weak and not well focused.
Great item for the money
This is an extremely useful unit for anyone doing occasional close up work. The optics are much clearer than I expected, and the lights work well and are pretty bright. The strap adjusts to most head sizes.
It's not really solidly made, and a bit uncomfortable, the strap and pads such as they are are pretty stiff, so I wouldn't recommend it to somebody who might use it for hours on end- invest in a better unit. But for someone like me who might use it for 10 minutes at a time for small projects, it's a wonderful addition to the toolbox.
