New gooseneck LED

[Brian Kent]

I have good lighting from above, but nothing to see inside my vases. Does this look like it would fill the bill? An LED flashlight gives me enough light, so I assume this would be about the same amount of light.

See any fatal flaws?

Look for this on Lowes.com it's a grill lite with a flexible shaft, clamp and magnet

Master Forge LED Clamp or Magnet Grill Light

Works great for me.

Looks good, Rick. Does the flexible shaft hold its position?

It has for me so far.

Brian, I have had the same light that Rick mentioned for three years and I have never had a problem with it holding position.

I found that the Ikea goose neck suffered from the sags whenever the light was extended on the horizontal position. During the back to school sales at Kohl's sells a very sturdy goose neck light. It retails for $40, but was on sale 50% off plus 15% senior citizen discont. Bad thing is it is only sold when kids are going back to college. A great source of magnets are old hard drives. They already have a keeper attached and are quite strong. A little grinding off the ears and some super glue make them great.

Try the one from VM Tooling there an Ikea jansko lite with a 65# pull magnet he put's on the bottom I have 3, 2 on my General and one for the Graduate. I've had one for 2 year's and still holds like new.

Works great, stays where I put it. Flashlight detaches, which is handy. But the neck is only 8", shorter than the one at Lee Valley.

My concern would be the "3 batteries last up to 5 hours" spec. I use the Ikea cheap ones, that plug in, but I find that the flex neck does not hold its position well.

X2 on the Ikea light bought 2 made a magnet base I wrapped the flex neck with black tape it hold its position better.

I have 2 of the Ikea lights and they work well for me. $10 each

Craft Supply sells these:

A bit spendy at $70 and the magnet could be stronger, but the light is excellent and it stays where I put it. I have two modified Ikea lights and one has the lens badly fogged and the gooseneck will not stay in place on either one.
