Portable Video Magnification

- Powered through a USB connection.
- Extremely portable.
- Depending on your laptop, it will only use a small percentage of your PC's battery life (approximately 4% of a 72 watt hour battery).
- If you need magnification on the go while using your laptop, then the PCMate is for you. No extra cords or battery needed -- just plug and play!
- Whether you are a student or on a business trip, the PCMate gives you the portability and the ease of connectivity allows you to view whatever you need at a moments notice.
- PC Mate uses very little desk space. It simply sits on a small plate that rests under your laptop.

The Clarity PC Mate offers a number of new features and is definitely a better choice than many other video magnifiers.
