Two incredibly handy tools seldom used for their intended uses are dental mirrors (a.k.a. "inspection" mirrors) and dental picks. The one problem with most inspection mirrors is that when you have to look into awkward electronic or mechanical crevices where you need a mirror, you also need a flashlight for illumination and a spare hand to hold the light. This kit (#832) has a dental mirror with a bright flashlight integrated into the handle and a switch in the grip, freeing up your other hand. The other neat thing is that for less than $10 you get two dental picks -- great for nudging or extracting small inaccessible components from assemblies. Recently, I was upgrading a friend's computer. The motherboard was mounted in a "baby ATX" case which was a very tight fit. To locate the CMOS reset jumper or check to see if the memory socket catch was engaged, I needed the use of the lighted mirror to negotiate the dark spots where those components were hidden. In the same manner the picks were handy to snag small cables within the case.

新型口腔牙龈护理工具
有两个很少被刻意使用到的不可思议的掌上工具，他们叫做“牙齿镜”（也可称为“反射镜”）和“牙齿钩”。一个在大多数反射镜上普遍存在的问题是，当你需要一面镜子来使用笨拙的电动或者机械设备的时候，你还需要一个射灯，这时候你就不得不腾出另外手来握住这样的光源。
这个工具（型号：832）有一面牙齿镜并且整合了一个明亮的射灯，他的开关在手把上，这样你的另一只手就得到解放啦。另一件让人高兴的事情就是你能在不到10美元的情况下的得到两件牙齿护理工具——一个非常有用的两个整合的装备。
最近，我帮我的朋友升级了电脑，采用了“Baby ATX”主板并放在一个非常小的机箱里。定位了CMOS重设跳线去看内存插槽是否可以使用。我需要使用带有灯光的镜子到那个哪些组件隐藏着的暗槽里。那个小的钩子工具也可以方便在那个机箱里找取电缆线。
