Pit Lamps

[mikeyscott]

After recently struggling with light at some indoor meetings, looking for a pit lamp.

What brands are there etc?

Just had a look at Orion and they look quite nice, just a question of how others compare etc.

Ive got that Orion lamp Mike. Decided to go with it as it was much cheaper than the Muchmore. Its plenty bright enough for close work.

Ah ok. I'll send an email to Neil at Kysoho.

Have a look for ott lite, these have a daylight simulating bulb and are available portableas well as mains powered. These used to be rebranded by various rc distributers but are dirt cheap on amazon.

The light is very bright runs of the mains or from USB port and has a le-ion battery + a clip you can stick to your tool box to attach the light to.

Many companies can offer a wrap or skin for these so you can personalise them...
