Works. Can be a fire starter or fine print trading aid.
Works fine. Very thin. Good for reading fine print or starting fires.

great item that works in a pinch
These work. I was helping my niece and nephew learn how to start emergency fire and the niece burned her hand under magnification so the science is in. I keep one in my billfold along with duct-tapem fish hooks, a matchbook , water filter and emergency tent.

These work great
These are just nice to have around. They do a great job as magnifiers, easy to keep in a wallet/purse to have at all times. Cheap enough where you can buy lots, and have them all over the house/shop/garage, wherever you sometimes need one, always at hand.

Where have these been my whole life?
I am what you would call an "armchair" survivalist. Testing out survival gear is one of my hobbies. I am not going to lie, I thought these were a gimmick - they definitely are not! These barely weigh a few grams but they do so much for so little mass. In full sunlight I lit a cigarette in about 20-30 seconds and I am confident I could get a camp fire going with relative ease. As a bonus, on the back of the sleeve I drew a diagram of a bowline knot (the so-called king of knots). This is probably my favorite piece of survival gear overall. Very impressed!

It magnifies; it starts fires.
Bought some as random "here have this" items at work, decent wallet magnifying glass, better at starting fires.

Not 4X power
I compared these to the 3X ones I have and they are same power. So, you're paying for 3 of these when you can get a pack of 12 for the same price but without the tacticool "survival" printed vinyl sleeves.

Very handy to read menus in the dark restaurants with small font.
I put one of these in my wallet because I don't want to carry my reading glasses when I got out to eat. Very handy to read menus in the dark restaurants with small font.

Pretty compact lenses
Delivered quickly enough. These are very thin and I havenโt been successful in starting a fire yet. As to the quality I really donโt know but they were expensive enough so Iโm hoping they will be a good addition to my hiking survival kit.
