Title: Magnifiers
Post by: pradeepdasgupta on August 02, 2011, 02:18:38 PM
Does anyone out there know where I can buy a Headband Magnifier and a Desk Lamp Magnifier? Preferably an outlet in Delhi.
Thanks in advance.

Go to Bhagirathi Palace near Chandni Chowk (Lal Quila). Try to locate a shop which deal in Mobile/SMD repair parts/tools. Ask for SMD Re-workstation Light. Another place is the 1st floor market in Nehru Place (Kits 'n' spares), but would be costlier though.

Incidentally I just saw the same today morning in SP Road Mtk, Bangalore.

Thanks a ton Ujjwaana! Really appreciate your prompt response. Looks like I am going to be needing these more and more for doing  those micro jobs.

By the way in case it is of interest to any senior (in age) modellers like me I just found both the items on ebay in and home shop. Exhaustive range.

I have purchased 1.5 years ago table top magnifying glass (double power) with round tube assembly costs Rs. 200 from Chandni chawck, Kolkata. You can check also in Sadar Bazar electronic gift shops those keep RC car even and night lampshade too. It would not be available in display but you surely get and in less cost too.

Or you may get in the gift shop with different lampshade & table lamps, near to your residence.
