FAQ
The Science Can Portable Microscope Upgrade is designed for children ages 8+, with a portable, durable build that supports independent hands-on exploration and school projects.
Yes, the universal clip design adjusts to fit smartphones from 4.5" to 7" screens, including iPhone, Samsung, Google Pixel, and most Android devices. No app required—simply align the microscope lens with your phone's camera lens and start capturing photos and videos of your discoveries.
The microscope operates on 2 AAA batteries (included) that provide approximately 15-20 hours of continuous LED illumination. For families using the microscope intermittently for weekend nature walks or after-school exploration, batteries typically last 2-3 months before needing replacement.
Absolutely. The portable design makes it ideal for homeschool science curricula, co-op groups, and elementary classroom stations. Teachers appreciate the smartphone connectivity for projecting discoveries onto smartboards, and the durable construction withstands daily use by multiple students. Many homeschooling parents report using it for biology unit studies, nature study programs, and science fair projects.
At 100x, children can clearly observe insect wing structures, leaf vein patterns, fabric weaves, and pond water microorganisms. At 250x, they can see individual plant cells, pollen grain details, and the cellular structure of onion skin. This magnification range is optimal for elementary biology powerful enough to reveal microscopic worlds without the complexity of high-school level compound microscopes.
The microscope features impact-resistant ABS construction with a protective silicone case that survives drops from 3 feet onto concrete. The LED light and lens housing are sealed against dust and light moisture, making it suitable for backyard exploration, nature hikes, and beach trips. While not waterproof, it withstands normal outdoor conditions and enthusiastic handling by elementary-aged children.
