Review of Brinsea Ovascope Egg Viewer

Customer Ratings:

Brinsea's high intensity candler (the "base" that fits inside this, and is available separately for about half the price) works much better WITHOUT this "scope," but requires a dark room, like a closet, windowless bathroom, or any room after dark. If you have a classroom of school children (daytime) who must all have a turn looking at the egg, this is a helpful appliance. If you are doing a documentary and need to attach a camera and computer system to the scope, this MAY be helpful. Seriously, all this piece of plastic does is create a dark environment with a peephole.

As a private small breeder, it is much more trouble to get the eggs in and out of this thing, only to see a restricted view of the egg. I am able to better evaluate the egg for overall health and development without this... wish I could send it back but Brinsea's 20%-restocking-and-you-pay-the-postage-both-ways makes it not worth the trouble.

Great egg viewer and I like the led light (no/little heat build up), but wish I had seen the high intensity version when buying. Need the high intensity light for darker eggs and since most of my chickens are brown egg layers, I had to also later buy the high intensity light kit to go with this viewer. Also, I have not been able to find the "add-on" piece for the computer/projector viewer that the manual mentions. No one seems to have this on their site even Brinsea. Or at least, I have not yet found it.

Good value and it does exactly what it says it does. You can see inside of the egg very well.

Buy it, you won't be disappointed.

Honest reviews on Brinsea Ovascope Egg Viewer

I had used a flashlight bright led candler but still had trouble seeing th embryo clearly inside the egg.

This was expensive but well worth it.

I had tried candling eggs using a flashlight and it was very difficult. The Brinsea Ovascope takes all the guesswork out. You place the egg in the viewer, put on the cover and look through the viewing lens. I checked over 30 eggs and only 3 didn't look viable. To be sure, I cracked them open....yep, no chick. Love this!
