10 in stock
This flat, small Fresnel lens is great for reading, repairing jewelry, electronics or anything small that you need to be magnified. This compact magnifying lens measures approximately 1.5 in wide by 3 in long x .5mm thick and stores easily between pages of a book. A French physicist named Augustin Fresnel invented this lens in 1822 to be used in lighthouses. The construction of a Fresnel lens is quite interesting as it allows magnification just like regular glass lenses do, but it can be as thin as paper!Â
Fresnel lenses are a great addition to any scale modelers toolbox to enhance one’s ability work on the small models, or even as a cover for stationary models such as lighthouses. Other possibilities include being used as the window glass for LED illuminated highlights, as well as house or store windows.
