Interesting lads. I was just thinking about this yesterday, my house isnt the best for capturing daylight due to its positioning and the lighting in the livingroom aint the best for tying. I find that as soon as it dulls down outside them I need to stop tying!! And there is absolutley no tying done at night!! Ill be investing in a lamp asap. And the argos lamp looks like being a winner.

Another vote for the hobbycraft one, was reduced by a tenner a while ago.
Breezy, you really need a few more spools of thread/wire/floss. Having such a small selection must be a bit limiting!!!

A great light with magnifier if needed, probably the best light for the money.
Totally agree with you Clansman. Great light and got mine for £19.99 just before xmas.
