I'm a hobbyist getting back into building a couple of electronics kits (the XTB-IIR - http://jvde.us/xtb_index.htm - for one) and will need some magnification. My question is:
"Should I buy a visor or bench magnifier?"
Also, for general soldering and parts inspection is a 2x enough (I have 20/20 eyesight) or should I consider a higher [magnification] power?
Brand and model recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Thanks for the help,
Greg
P.S. When I mentioned the Bausch & Lomb 814200 to my wife she just rolled her eyes and left the room...
