Small electronics are the first thing I think of when I open this magnifying clamp light. I want the lens close to the work when I need it, then out of the way when I do not.

## The mount is a separate piece

The box includes a cleaning cloth, instructions, mounting hardware and the light assembly. I look over the metal clamp and work out where the mount will sit on my desk.

Once that is tightened down, I can drop the arm into place and move the lens around. I like that the mount stays relatively unobtrusive when the rest of the assembly is not in it.

## Power from a USB battery

I connect the USB lead to a power bank and switch the light on. Then I try raising and lowering the brightness and changing the light color.

The arm and lens head give me several ways to position the light. The recording shows those movements and controls, rather than a completed electronics repair or a measured optical test.

## Light and magnification in one place

The package discusses two magnification levels. I do not measure those levels or lens distortion here; the useful first look is how the assembly fits into the workspace.

My [BINNIWEN clamp-lamp walkthrough](<https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/transform-your-desk-setup-with-binniwen-s-24w-led-clamp-lamp-147fa843>) is another desk-edge mounting arrangement, this time focused on a wide light rather than a magnifying lens.
