Light enough to be carried in pocket w/o weighing me down? Will carry on medical mission to Tanzania and don't want to be encumbered by bulky items.

The scope itself weighs 3 oz, but 8" long, so would need a big pocket. It would have to be in a pant pocket, not in a scrub shirt pocket. The case of course is bigger & weighs 6 oz. good luck w your trip.

The otoscope itself is definitely light and easy enough to carry in your pocket. My father goes on medical missions and takes something very similar to this.

Its pretty light maybe a couple pounds. Thin and easy to travel with which is why I bought it.

It's quite light. I really like it for travel since it has a pocket and it zips closed!

It is not that heavy. Weighs about 8 to 10 pounds. Easy to carry in its bag.

It is light enough but it does not break down easily, so it will be bulky as you try to carry it up and down stairs.

Not bad, but not light weight either. I can carry two by the straps on the bags in one hand. Hope this helps. Rick

Very light, could pack in a "travel-purse" friendly roll without any issues..

Yes, this is super light and compactable, folds down to the size of a garbage can lid. I wouldn't carry anything heavy in it, because although it's waterproof and zips up, it's thin.

I weigh about 180lbs and will go about 10 miles at full speed on mostly flat terrain. I have thought about a spare battery, but have not found a good way to carry one with me.... I could imagine if I commuted to work or somewhere regularly keeping a spare battery to switch out.

I can't answer that for you. I am not a minimalist so I do not weigh my gear. It isn't very heavy though.

Not very heavy. You could carry in your backpack if you can gey it in. Hope that helps.

Not heavy. Easily carried. Though if I were moving about often I would definitely want some protective cover for it; the keys are delicate.

i have med . love it but ... for a safari go military or canvas . kwugtt is right not the toughest bags on the market . great for the gym,camping or light travels . big difference when you handle it vs the airlines !

Carried in a pocket, it wouldn't be the best choice, because of its weight and size, and also because of the rubber handles, which would make putting it in and taking it out of a pocket a real pain.The handles would also make it gather lint.However, carried in its sheath, it's quite comfortable, and the sheath is high quality.

It's light enough to carry but it would be an awkward and large shape to carry around, at least for me.

It is lighter than the bullet. I traveled with it to PR and it worked perfectly.

Thanks for your response. It looks too big to carry so I will get another smaller one. I hope you never have to use it.
