Question

[JCON]

I am struggling with the lighting on my workbench and was wondering what you guys use? I need something bright but not looking to break the bank... share a pic of yours and any info on who makes them, where you got it, etc...

BenQ is good..but best, Redgrass games ..or just get two clamp on bulb lamps and use 100w daylight LED

Joe, I've got these in the basement and the garage. They work outstandingly well. mounting hardware comes with them. hang'em, plug them in and you're lite for life.



Hope that helps you out.

I have four of those lights hanging in the Hobby Shack. They are very bright! I really like them. On the bench, I have three swing arm lamps. One has a circular florescent bulb with a magnifier in the center. The other two have different bulbs in order to try to realize the full color spectrum.

I have twoof these but the cast shadows on the front of my work... I'm thinking I need a gooseneck desk lamp with them that I can cast light from the front side...

Maybe something like this,Joe?

Use LED bulbs

Normally Joe I use a cheap table lamp that has a flexable arm. I tried different daylight bulbs from a cheap store ( £1 a bulb) . I will try and post the details tomorrow

I use the lamp from my old machine shop that was on my desk then it uses a 100 w bulb (very bright} that is now on my model desk. I bought it in the 80s at a flea market for little $.

Thank you everyone!!!

Joe, this is what I use. It’s a daylight led bulb with a standard screw in base. I use in a task lamp with the shade removed. I got it at Walmart.
