Looky +
The Looky+, as the name suggests, is an upgraded version of the leading Looky handheld magnifier.
The batteries of the Looky+ can be used for a longer time between charges than those of the standard Looky, thereby offering you more reading pleasure. The Looky+ also has more contrast modes: the black/white and white/black reading modes have been supplemented with yellow/blue and yellow/black reading modes. The Looky+ has four digital magnification settings, from 2X to 20X.
The Looky+, which weighs 200 grams, is just as light as the standard version. It fits easily into your breast pocket or handbag, so you can always take it with you.
The Looky+ has a folding handle that fits comfortably in the hand. It also has another unique function, its Freeze function. You can press a button to, as it were, take a snapshot. The Looky+ also has a writing position that simplifies making a note or placing your signature while looking through the magnifier.
The handle holds standard rechargeable batteries. They can only be inserted one way round, so you do not need to check the + or – polarity.
