I would like recommendations for microscopes for high school biology.
Particularly, I am wondering

1) Are microscopes with dual view worth the extra cost?

2) What is the difference between incandescent, fluorescent, and halogen
lights in terms of use?

3) There is an "LED" microscope that Eagle Microscopes advertises as not
needing to be plugged in. Has anyone tried this or know of its
effectiveness for the classroom?

Any other suggestions or cautions?

Thanks and Happy 2004!
