May 15, 201214 yr comment_514708 I desperately need a good desk lamp. Using the computer as a light source just isn't a great idea for many reason. I noticed that Softech DL-90 has really good reviews on amazon and I like the idea of using LEDs and having a natural-like light source. I was wondering if anyone has used a similar type of light or has any alternatives? Report
May 15, 201214 yr Author comment_514720 I looked at that one but was afraid that it wouldn't light up enough of the desk. I would likely have at least a book/paper and a notebook that would need to be illuminated. Report
May 15, 201214 yr comment_514721 That is cool looking. Cheaper than the one I want, but wont spend the money one. http://www.lumens.com/Eco-Task-41006-LED-Table-Lamp-by-ET2/uu427059/product I say buy it and see what you think. If you don't like it you are only out return shipping. Just make sure to keep the box. Shipping is free so they wont deduct that cost from your refund if you should decide to send it back. Report
May 15, 201214 yr comment_514723 I'd say sign up on Fab and wait a couple weeks. Always cool lamps coming up (though maybe not exactly what you're looking for). For instance right now... Edited May 15, 201214 yr by blessingx Report
May 15, 201214 yr comment_514735 I looked at that one but was afraid that it wouldn't light up enough of the desk. That was the same concern I had with that one. http://www.potteryba...ask-table-lamp/ Works quite well with a 60 watt (equivalent) led bulb and it's easy to re-adjust when needed. Pretty retro though... Edited May 15, 201214 yr by Mister X Report

May 15, 201214 yr comment_514739 bankers lamp with one of the new GE 100 watt equivalent A19 LED bulbs. Plenty of light. Report
May 15, 201214 yr comment_514740 For under $23: http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/687849/Realspace-Urban-Task-Lamp-17-H/?cm_cat=2000000353 I have had one for over a year and works well, if a lot of light is needed then get two! Still cheaper ... Report
May 15, 201214 yr comment_514744 I use an Anglepoise type 75. I have 2, one for the desk one for the bedside table. Love them. Big things compared to a bankers lamp though. Report
