Review: I've been reading Cody Lundin's books and agree with his assessment that having multiple ways of starting a fire is key in a survival situation. This small, pocketable magnifying glass, assuming you have enough sun light, works well enough to start a fire. You can easily put it in your wallet, survival kit, or glove box and know you have a solid way to start fire in certain conditions. Also helps with reading your topo map.

Das Fernglas is so lala, aber man hat ein echtes Lupenmikroskop mit sehr sehr guten Bildern und toller Ausleuchtung. Man kann das Ding sogar als Not-Taschenlampe verwenden. Den Kompass kann man vergessen und die Uhr ist unnötig, aber wer braucht das schon. Ich wollte es eigentlich dem Sohn meiner Cousine schenken, aber ich behalte es und schaue mir weiter alle möglichen Sachen unter dem Mikroskop an. Der Junge kriegt ein neues. Für DAS Geld ist dies ein unglaublich gutes Gerät. ## Frequently Bought Together - Carson X-Scope Kids 7 Function Multi Purpose Optical Pocket Tool with 30x Microscope, 8x Telescope, 9x Fold-Out Magnifier, Flashlight, Signal Whistle, Directional Compass and Digital Clock (CP-11) - Try Not to Laugh Challenge Would You Rather?
