Re: Bench Light (Prehijacked) }:-)>

Amazon has thousands of LED lights. Some of the LED goosenecks are great for working on things.

I put a few LED strip lights on the underside of the lowest shelf on my bench. With a dimmer. Works great.

And a couple of LED spots to illuminate my whiteboard.

Amazon is like the State Store except a State Store the State doesn't like very much, that has products in stock...

Sometimes I think everyone posting in this group is on drugs.

Hey! Just say NO!

Thank you. That was very helpful.

You can't buy drugs on Amazon yet as far as I know.

Oh. You wanted helpful. Ah okay. These are my LED bench lights from Amazon they work very well:

These goggles I recommend for working at a bench with LED lighting:

Goggles aside, is the LED lamp really 2000 lumens would you say? That should be noticeably brighter than a 100 watt lamp which is typically 1500 lumens.

yeah, but like he said "enjoy" it elsewhere build a linear ballast if needed.

Indeed, I was a big spender and bought one of these in 2013:

Flexible Office Mini 28 LED USB Light For Computer Lamp Laptop PC Desk Reading 2$52

One should not plug those in an USB connector, its weight will kill the connector, so I modified things and fixed it to front PC with super glue:

It is still working, have it on most of the evening. Glue to any heavy object, 5V DC, no interference..

After 7 years 2 LEDs died in it, makes little or no difference in light. it is VERY bright, no way can you look into it. Easily adjustable, great keyboard light too.

I bought some of those... they had some internal switching supply. (LED's modulated at ~30 kHz or something like that.) I hacked in a current C-multipler and it works fine.
