This is so much less expensive than fiber optic ring lighting and much much better than cold cathode/fluorescent lighting.

Small, no wasted table top space for an illuminator box. Brightness is continuously adjustable from zero to 100%. Ring adapter fit the scope I had, but note that it will not fit the Bausch and Lomb Stereozoom 4 or 5.

Led's are aligned to project to a 'center'. Color temp is cool, and the reflection from a shiny object is interesting as you'll see all the individual LED's shining back at you.

Very much recommended!

We are using this light for PCB (printed circuit board) repair soldering and de-soldering components (0402, 0603 sizes). The light is more than adequate for our purposes and we are very happy with it. The product we received looks slightly different than the picture shown we received a white all-in-one unit with the dimmer on the light itself, while the picture shows an external unit with a dial for a dimmer. We don't care either way, as it works great, it must just be a stock photo.

I was concerned about getting enough light for a Stereozoom 6 Photo with 10x eyepieces (max 40x mag). However, I can use this at about half brightness and have enough. I expect it to have sufficient light up to ~80x. I also use it with a digital video capture attachment and there is plenty of light for that as well. Having both a power switch and a dimmer is very handy, as you can adjust your brightness and leave it adjusted for next time. The light output on mine is uniform to the naked eye out to ~2.25" diameter, then quickly bleeds away from there.

As the other reviewer noted, it will not mount directly on a Stereozoom 6, but what I did was purchase a cheap camera rear lens cap (the kind that thread on to to base of a lens when off the camera -Pentax M42) and cut the end off of it. That gave me a plastic ring I could thread onto the microscope to mount the light to.

This product is very nice. The light is very bright so things look fantastic under microscope. The only complaint is that you cannot regulate the intensity of the light. However, the quality is very good and I have ways of regulating the light so there is no big issue.
