Day lamps

Post by Nicola Main »

My Mum said I could get one for my birthday but which would you recommend? Ideally for use on a table. Thanks in advance!

I use a regular lamp and put a daylight fluorescent bulb in it. It gives me bright daylight light and I didn't have to buy a separate lamp.

Were you looking for a lamp-only or do you want a lamp with a magnifier?

If you aren't requiring magnification, then buying a bulb is much the best option. I would also suggest you use something like an anglepoise for its flexibility. And the choice is good, too.

I've bought this TaoTronics lamp so I will let you all know how I get on with it. It looks like it will be sturdy enough and give enough light. You can change the colour modes from quite dim to bright white light.
