Ants In Coffee Machine

Thanks to this transformer now  I may use my beloved Italian coffee grinding and coffee machine

This unit packs a punch considering its size and weight. It powered everything we threw at it, even our coffee machine, one at the time of course.

I bought it for my Commercial Semi Truck, I used for microwave and coffee machine two weeks with same charge, really very usable.

You can use it to prop up your busted coffee table.

We bought this pocket microscope to use in the field, and we were a bit suspicious at first about the quality. I am a PhD student who studies ants, and I need it to identify the ants I am collecting. This microscope clearly does the job! We are using it to teach biology to my son.

I currently use it with a Magfilter on my RX100 mk1. At first I used the clip, but now I use a 55mm to 43mm step down ring, and replaced the horrible lens caps with aftermarket push caps. This allowed me to keep the setup semi attached for quick startup. Between 1x to 1.4x you will have vignetting. From 1.5 to 3.6x none. On the RX100 you have the closest focus distance at 1x (f1.8) and worst at fully zoomed in, and no greater magnifcation. The Raynox fixes this - the more you zoom in, the closer you get. The autofocus works a lot better with the Raynox attached on my� ants, due the larger size the ants appear on the screen. Still manual focus with peaking or DMF works better for more precise trageting on ants Now the pop up flash will cast a shadow at this range with the setup. I made a ghetto flash guide and dispersion with a toilet roll ( white inside) and a folded tissue paper rubber banded on the end :) The length is perfect. I'm working on a better more semi permanent solution... Now the magnification of ants is still not quite enough for me, so some cropping is needed, but Clear Zoom option helps.

This is a high performance lens made by B&W. It brings me to a new world that I never thought possible. I can take close-ups of almost everything: ants, texture of plants, fruits, jowels, you name it.

One of my camera’s failed because ants invested the inside probably chewing on wires and components after entering the camera where the cable enters. Their nest was inside the camera. Anyway the new camera was prefect and solved the problem. I cocked around where the wires enter to prevent this from happening again.

My only complaint is it does not make my coffee in the morning while afield.

Great for a portable second screen on the go like at a not-too-busy coffee shop!
