Mr. Wizard’s Microscope

microscope for all occasions

I don’t know if Mr. Wizard was into  microscopes, but I’m sure he would love this little hand-held device that I bought for my daughter’s birthday last weekend.

It’s called the Bionic Eye, and it’s made by Eye Clops.  It plugs into your TV, and it has zoom levels of 100x, 200x, and 400x.  The best part: it only costs about $30.

Below you can watch a video of me testing out the microscope.

Even if my daughter doesn’t end up playing with it much, I’m going to get hours of fun from this thing.

If you happen to know of anything that’s especially cool to look at under a microscope, please tell me about it.

  1. Yes Mr. Wizard’s world rocked! My brother and I made a very big mess trying to recreate some experiments when we were little (and Mom wasn’t home of course!)

  2. Brad, that sounds good. Bring ’em. Gotten along as kids, huh? What about now?

    Julie, that’s funny! Yes, he was quite an inspiration. My favorite was the episode with dry ice – shattering frozen bananas and whatnot. I’ve always wanted to do that!

  3. That was sweet. Thanks for the video demo. I think it would be cool to look at minerals with it – galena, amethyst, satinspar gypsum etc.

  4. hilarious!!!! You that is……………..miss you and your love for the Lord and life.
