My new toy

Hey guys, I found this item as a close-out at "Big Lots". It's called Eye Clops mini Bionic Eye.
It's basically a "toy" plug-in TV microscope. But it sure works great for checking trichomes. I got mine for $20 & change. Thought I would pass this along, it has sure helped me. It's a lot easier to check the screen of a 25" TV than squinting into one of those little pocket scopes. I've included some pix, the trichomes show a lot better than my crappy camera can capture off a TV screen.
Good luck & good grow....BB bongsmilie

Update: I haven't been able to put this damn thing down! It's like "spelunking" down a diamond mine.
I've gone through all 6 of my dried strains and the subtle differences are amazing. I once again, HIGHLY recommend this or any simular product if you REALLY want to get up close and personal with your buds.
I've tried some more pix, but my Vivatar is not up to the challenge of capturing decent screen shots.
Good luck & good grow......BBbongsmilie

I've seen those before, it never dawned on me it could be used to see trichs. A tip of the hat to you, thanks.

I have vision problems and I can not believe I've never heard of this before! I thought I should say thanks if for no other reason than to bring this back around for anyone who may have missed it. Good find. I'm tired of squinting thru my pocket scope...

Hi Franco, you're right, the 1st pix were the "Eye-Clops Bionic-Eye". That was the $20 unit. The last pix were from the
"BioniCam", with built-in screen & memory chip. That was $67 and worth every penny. Now i'm having as much fun LOOKING at my buds as I am smoking them, lol.........BB
