more power does not equal better for reading inside rings etc.A 10x is plenty of magnification.you may consider getting the acid test kit on amazon it also comes with loupe.10x a digital scale,diamond tester,files etc for about 50 bucks..its a puritest kit and the loupe is really pretty darn good.

The one I have is very close to this one.

Its very nice. I haven't figured out yet what the UV light would be good for, but the regular light is good.
