Precision Economy Spectrometer

What exactly is light?

We’ve all been taught that the “white” light that we see and use everyday is actually made up of a combination of all the colors along the visible spectrum, combined in such a way that white has great intensity (brightness) but no hue (color). A spectrometer lets you see this spectrum. It measures the properties of light over a specific portion of the electromagnetic spectrum and provides a visual representation of what the light actually is – you’ll actually see the parts of the “rainbow”!

This durable, hand-held plastic spectrometer can be used to study different kinds of light, both natural and man-made and to identify the various elements present in the different kinds of lights. It uses high-dispersion, high efficiency diffraction grating that produces a bright spectrum that is very easy to read. Additionally, the spectrometer is calibrated to have accuracy within 1 nanometer when measuring wavelength and includes a reference label for bright spectral lines.

plous and minus
Reviewed By: Martin (Rochester, NY)
Excellently conceived and designed instrument. I enjoy using it. The instruction booklet is designed for a teacher's use, but it shows sloppy editing. It is incomplete from the viewpoint of an individiual interested in science. My instrument arrived with a flaw in assembly that I was able to repair myself. Better quality control needed.

Excellent Educational Value
Reviewed By: Meg (Nashua, NH)
This spectroscope is easy to use and makes the basics of spectroscopy accessible to elementary and middle school students. We purchased it about 10 years ago, and have used it on occassion for explaining about atomic theory, light, chemistry, and energy with our robotics team and other students. It is durable and because it is easy to use, the children understand what they are doing. Also recommend the prism you can fill with different liquids - it makes a big rainbow.
