Unboxing and checking out a low end digital microscope and then trying to fix my old Mantis which was damaged by Borg nanoprobes (ahem)

Providing a permanent link isn't easy so if you want to find one of these for yourself, go to https://www.temu.com/ and search for "microscope" and you should see it in the results.
If you're interested in the Mantis, check out their current models at https://www.visioneng.com/products/eyepiece-less-stereo-microscopes/mantis/

And, if you can't afford a Mantis check out this review of the Tomlov flex arm microscope from Mark Fixes Stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPSOad9A8Ks
