USB Microscope Gadget
Have you ever wondered what a biscuit crumb looks like up close? And we mean really, really close. Or how about a toenail clipping? Or a flea? Or a flea eating a biscuit crumb on a toenail clipping? If you have (and what busy executive clock watcher hasn’t?) then you need the fascinating USB Microscope.
Focus / Zoom
This smart USB-powered instrument lets you zoom in (from 20x to 200x) on any object you fancy. And thanks to its accompanying software you can record your findings as photos and videos on your PC. Hold it like a pen or pop it on its smart little desktop stand. It even boasts an internal white LED to illuminate objects to the max. You’ll never be bored at your desk again.

If by any chance you do tire of examining flecks of lint, mouldy crackers, egg stains and flakes of dandruff, you can always don a white coat, dim the lights and pretend you’re Bruce Banner, her off the X Files or even Quincy. Asking colleagues to ‘come take a look at this!’ with wide-eyed amazement is entirely optional.
