Frequently Asked Questions

Why are there two eyepieces?

The WF10x gives 40x, 100x and 400x. Swapping to the WF25x gives 100x, 250x and 1000x. The 25x is useful for a closer look, though without an oil immersion lens 1000x adds size rather than detail.

Which grades is it for?

Senior primary and high school classwork up to 400x. For matric Life Sciences practicals that need a true 1000x view, choose a model with a 100x oil objective.

Can it work where there are no plug points?

Yes, on three AA batteries. The brightness dial helps stretch battery life.
