Video Magnifier Rentals

INSIGHT is now renting used video magnifiers for one, three, and six month terms. Prices start as low as $15 per month.

A video magnifier, or closed circuit television (CCTV), is a stand mounted video camera that projects an image on to a television or computer monitor. Many people use them for reading, writing, and almost anything else that requires magnification. The video magnifier rental program is geared towards people who are either considering the purchase of a machine or those who need the equipment only for a short period of time.

Machines are only available for rent in Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts.  Delivery is available.

Please note that all of our video magnifiers are currently being rented.  To be contacted when machines become available, contact Chris Butler at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
