## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this too powerful (or too difficult in terms of say lens size) to use for splinter or bee sting removal?**
A: We would recommend the Carson Lighted MagniGrip 4.5x LED Lighted Magnifier with Precision Tweezers (MG-88) for splinter or bee sting removal.  This product is also available on Amazon via this link: https://www.amazon.com/Carson-MagniGrip-Magnifier-Precision-MG-88/dp/B0011WYMI2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1541001884&sr=8-1&keywords=carson+mg-88

**Q: Could this be used to find splinters?**
A: Yes.  If a typical hand-held magnifier does not work, the MicroMini can be used to find splinters.

**Q: Is it waterproof?**
A: That Im not sure about. Mine has gotten wet several times but I havent dropped it in water yet. Im fairly sure if you did drop it in water, you could retrieve it, dry it off & out, removing the battery, & all would be well. Id give it time to throughly dry tho, probably 24 hours, then test it. These are made to take some abuse so I think it would survive.

**Q: Hi, do you have a shopify store?**
A: Hi Zeeshan, 

No, unfortunately, we don't have a shopify store. 

We encourage you to contact our customer service at info@carson.com, we will be happy to help you to find the best option to serve your needs.
