I got one with a dual LED light. This thing works great, will light up those trichomes without the need for extra ambient light. The only downside was it took longer to get it shipped from HK.

(I don't remember if this was the seller I bought from, but the loupe is identical to mine).

I also like the lower magnification of the loupe. I had the RS scope first but 60-100x can be too much at times. I like the 30x, it's perfect for seeing the the color of the trichomes. The higher magnification of the other one gives a much smaller field of vision which can be challenging when looking at your plants.
I have the RS scope too and while it is very good at seeing details up close, its kind of hard to focus without actually cutting a piece off and laying it flat on a surface. You have to sort of hover over the buds and find the right distance to get everything in focus which can be a pain, but it does work. Never tried the loupe but I'm interested in trying one of those one of these times
