For those of you who use one of these, which combination of magnification and focal distance do you find most comfortable for soldering work?
I am thinking the 2x at 10 inches (lensplate/diopter #4) might be a good choice, but I would like some feedback from other users.
Thanks in advance.

This confirms that my gut feeling on the #4 might be right on.
If I go for anything closer, my soldering iron might end up burning my goggles.
No opinions?

Hi stratus,
Thanks for the response.
I tossed the decision between the No.4 and No.5 back and forth a few times. The No.4 happened to be available with free 2 day shipping through Amazon prime, so I bought it. I figure I can buy other lensplates if I want to try them.

Review: Excellent! I don't know how I went so long without it!
Anyone who has not tried these; jump on Amazon and order a pair. Well worth the money, in my opinion.
Also, I am very glad to have the #4 lensplate. Anything more powerful would have resulted in a bit too short of a focus distance for me.
