Default Lamp
On page 67 of the February 2011 Total Fly-fisher there is a picture taken at BFFI showing a row of tyers. Can anyone identify the lamps they are using?

Sunray,

I was tying on that tying row!

The lamps provided were /are from the Daylight Company - the exact model has been discontinued but the up to date version is here: (slightly different base)

Daylight™ | United Kingdom | PL reading Lamp, white

Kind regards

Looks similar to the one I got from Argos.

Buy Large Black Energy Efficient Desk Lamp at Argos.co.uk - Your Online Shop for Desk lighting.

The optima lamp is the same as the one from the daylight company but they are charging double the price.
