As an electronic repairman with ageing eyes, I use a magnifying glass very often, I had one that mounted on my desk that I attached to my bench but the arm was limited. This lamp had a lot of pros to it. You can adjust light temperature and brightness. The LED us diffused and the lamp itself has a heavy base and is very stable. The one con I found, was it is made for home use, even though it is called Pro . The castes are too small and make it hard to move around. Besides that it is really a 5 star product.
