At 4:35 minutes what is the round ring looking thing for, and where does it go?

[@TonyAlbus]

Hello Fladden, my ring is still in de box, i don't use it, but one of the other viewers told me this: The clear plastic below the camera comes off and that goes on as a light defuser.

[@PootaurStuff]

@@TonyAlbus Hey today I accidently found out where it goes! I did a google search on this model, and when I went to the images page, low and behold, the very 1st picture shows it on! I swear I searched for an hour yesterday and could never find out that is was for, then this morning, I find it instantly.... Isnt this how all things go anyhow, when you try to find something you never do. When you are NOT looking for something, you find it... Hey I love this scope, its better than my other 7" LCD scope. I like the idea that I snap the pic without touching the scope and making the specimen move around. Today, my sister gets a microscope, and my old 7" one... she has no clue, she will be shocked, and overjoyed! She was wanting just a microscope, but now she is getting two, and we are feeding her McDonald's tonight when she gets off of work. Hey three great things in one visit!!! I sure like your workbench... remember I posted that im an x-instructor teaching ground radio to satcom? Ya got some goodies there broski!!!!!!!!!!!

@@PootaurStuff That white piece of silicone goes around the base of the lens/focus tube to protect it from the thumbscrews.

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you, yes it is, i use it to put it higher in its stand so you get a better overview

[@christianfrischholz4272]

I have the same Microscope, and for this little price its an good device. However, I built it on a heavier base plate with a new table on top that can be moved via fine adjustments. The microscope "table" is now a bit higher, but the part is bombproof and you can move the part of the interest under the microscope cleanly and without jerking.

[@TonyAlbus]

Nice solution you made, thanks for sharing Chris!

[@PsychoPlantLady]

Thank you for this review and walk through. Just got this microscope and your video was very helpful.

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you for leaving a comment that it helped you, have fun with the microscope, it still use mine, its very good.

[@CrownRider]

Hey Tony. The extra micro usb cable to the remote is to power the 2 lamps with the flexible posts.

[@TonyAlbus]

Yes correct

[@PootaurStuff]

The instruction and ads for this microscope says that it supports up to a 32 gb SD Card... NO do NOT believe this at all. I put a 128 gb card in, and it works!!! Now I have plenty of room to store things. But I normally copy things over to my PC. I sure wish I could post still images here to youtube and not just videos so I could show you the screen capture of the details on the SD card storage and compatibility, and other things!

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you for sharing that, that is very useful, 32GB is not that much, good info Fladden, thanks!

Is there a tutorial for this microscope?? My Aunt bought one and needed help with it and I'm not sure how to help her so I was hoping I could find a video that I'd be able to send her. Thanks in advance.

[@janekcalhoun4436]

Mine was advertised as a coin microscope. Most coins are bigger than a dime so it is not a coin microscope as advertised.

[@Stephen_Heathcote]

I have the scope separately, without the monitor. It's mounted on my desk magnifier and i can use the light from that to see more. They are an excellent addition for anyone doing SM work etc and would highly recommend. No need to buy the expensive ones, as these do the job for me :)

[@TonyAlbus]

Really smart to put it on your desk light! looks good..

[@PootaurStuff]

@Grady Rowen You are RIGHT... NO ONE GIVES A CRAP! I have no idea why your are posting it here... who gives a flying Fk, although I commend you for the hack!!!

[@urig.5759]

I cannot connect the support to the screen and lens, it looks like the lens is bigger than the support slot

[@TonyAlbus]

Do you mean that silver plastic ring? i was never able to find a purpose for that thing

[@PootaurStuff]

I already have the model of 7" microscope of a different brand. I'm giving it to my sister and ordering the one that you are reviewing. I'm an x-instructor for the US Air Force in the field of Ground Radio repair, which is now called RF Transmissions. I taught radio, GPS, cell phones, mass alert, satcom, and any and all devices that do any form of electronic communications. I'm also an EE and mathematician. I am so impressed with your bench of test equipment, what a great setup you have there! It looks like you have everything! I am now fully retired, but I still do electronics, I design and build things based on the Arduino. I would love to have all your equipment although a single commuications test set would be enough, but still, your collection is fantastic! I look forward to this microscope coming in. I also have the Flipview, which I consider a piece of crap. I also have TWO German made, high quality, super expensive lab microscopes, both with digital eyepieces, running to my PC that has two 47" monitors! This crap of squinting your eye up at the microscope is just plain stupid and irritating to do when it is so easy and inexpensive to put the image on a computer monitor! My digital eyepieces are $100 each and not cheap junk. Each of the lab scopes exceed $2500 each. But, they are not good for looking at bugs like the scope in your video, they are great for looking at individual cells of the bug! My lower powered ones are so much better for bugging! I will be surprising my sister with my 7" LCD Microscope. She loves looking at the bug pictures I send to her, and she made the statement that she would love to have a microscope... Well, with her being poor, and me being rich, I am about to make her wish come true! Ain't that nice of me? Anyhow, my scopes, and the one you are review, all fantastic to use!, Nice video and you get a thumbs up from me!

[@TonyAlbus]

Hello Fladden, thanks for sharing that, nice stuff you have, yes i am sure she will like it.

[@PootaurStuff]

Mine comes in tomorrow on 6 April, then giving my other one to my sister, and with a bunch of microbiology PDF's!

[@TonyAlbus]

Hello Fladden, that si very quick shipping, very nice of you to give the other to your sister.

[@PootaurStuff]

@@TonyAlbus My sister thought that I had brought the other one over just to show her it. She was SHOCKED when I told her I was giving it to her. She was almost in tears! She is dirt poor and works at Dollar General and barely makes an income. We also brought her feed from McDonalds, she cant afford to eat out either. For me, $100 isn't even enough to buy enough beer, so its piss-ant money. She would never be able to afford even a $30 microscope, much less, one that is $100. She was so delighted. I trained her how to use it in the stand-alone mode. Next time I visit I'll teach her the capture software. She's had a few days and said she is all over her yard collecting specimens to view. I also downloaded her a huge amount of microbiology PDF books for her to read. I would have NEVER though she would like anything geeky like this. She absolutely loves HER microscope I gave! I am delighted. Hey later I'll post a video of my 4 microscopes. I have two lab quality German made ones, not the crap from China, and very expensive. Then the same model in your video, and a Celestron Flipview!

What kind of scope is this? How much did it cost? I'm looking at the andonstar ADSM 302 HDMI or AD 208s I believe it was. The 8 inch screen instead of the 5 inch on 302 and the working height is able to work a little higher as well.

[@TonyAlbus]

Hello Josheph. it is a DM9 and the link you can find in the description. yes i would prefer a microscope that could go higher, but for what you pay this one is very nice.

I have a leipan that I bought from Amazon almost a year ago and I love it and I do lots of coins but it's definitely not 3d. I have to hold a coin in my hand and tilt it and this is not practical so I had to get a Hastings loupe for the double dies and RPM. But I wear glasses and half blind and it works great for everything else. One of these days I gonna get a laptop to finally hook it up.

Hi Like your presentation - Q - I am planning to get from Amazon - my Q is how is the power consumption ( Dc) I can use it for extended time to my electronics lab and research. Is there a plug for dc ?

[@TonyAlbus]

Hello Jerrybon, you can use it several hours on the battery. you can also think of replace the 18650 with higher capacity or just plug in the USB cable during usage, so it charges during use.

What does sir think about this tool? It looks good enough for starter. I cannot imagine how best the resolution will be in more expensive scope.

[@TonyAlbus]

Exactly it is good enough!!

[@yusdiy]

@@TonyAlbus 👌👍

[@PootaurStuff]

Don't let the low price fool you! The resolution is outstanding! Not only is this scope great for starters, but trained professionals will love this scope also! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this scope! I like using it more than my lab-quality microscope, both exceeding $2500 each. Some times it is better to magnify below 1200 for looking a things like bugs, coins, circuits, and so on... My lab scopes are just to extreme for those objects because I can magnify to the level of seeing whats in a single cell.

[@thevitamindeanshow3303]

Hello. I have a Mac and I'm having trouble finding drivers. I tried to use your link but I got pdf's and my mac warned me not to open for possibility of malware with 1 of the files. I just want to check out some coins and look at them on my computer. How would that be complicating. Sending this back would be very disappointing...

Hello, the links i have are for PC, you can also just look directly on the screen. (charging it can be done without any driver, just plug it in.)

I found that searching the Vcoins seller database I found coins being sold "as found". I've cleaned hundreds of the LRBC and am moving up to Tetrarchy follis and large provincial. There is a good selection🤠 to choose from.

[@RussHodes]

Tony, this video was clumsy and a reckless, although the product is still a good digital microscope. First off, the manual is nearly useless - the English portion is poorly translated. The web site was no better. The worst part is that there are no instructions about how to assemble the microscope. There is a diagram on the side of the box that shows how the support stand and microscope go together, but there is nothing about the wiring The stand is surprisingly difficult to screw together, because the threads on the support rod were not clean. Second, the camera slides into the support ring WITH THE WHITE SILICONE BAND that was included (Tony left it off), I found that the stand lights were very helpful, particularly with metal objects (coins, electronic boards, etc) There is no USB charger included and that was an unfortunate mistake (IMHO). The worst part of the microscope is the color capture. The LCD screen is pretty sharp and even, but the color is greatly subdued. You may have to transfer the files to a computer to edit them to bring out colors. Tony, you went through this setup way too fast and he missed a lot. The newest kits DO include a 32GB Micro memory card. The software utility (only for Windows OS) comes on a USB memory stick. It works with Mac OS without special drivers.

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you for the extra information, i am sure it is very helpful for others who were also struggling with this device.

[@redkurn]

got mine today, for $99.99 it's nice, probably could be better, but nice so far and i don't mind using obs, bandicam or streamlabs to access the camera on my pc. good to know it also works on usb power only and no need to ruin a easily replaceable 18650 by leaving it on the charger 80% of the time. I'm using oasis.exe from here, bandicam works, but this is much smaller and works as good with a digital zoom feature. www.oasisscientific.com/downloads.html also, where did you find the dm9 zip?

Hello Redkurn, thanks for the extra info on the streams, that is new to me, thanks!.. the DM9 is a zip i made, from the software from the CD that came with it, and some scans i made myself or collected from somewhere.

This is a Chinese deception in describing the capabilities of the microscope. How can the maximum video resolution be 1280*720 at 12MP? There is clearly a very outdated camera no more than 1.2MP. All these 12MP are software interpolation, the technology is very outdated.
