Thank you for posting this Clay, I decided to reply to Lace rather than Chat as several people mentioned they are not on Chat and wanted to follow the discussion. Today I was out and about and checked at Barnes & Noble and Borders. There are a variety of itty bitty type lamps available ranging from $10 to $30 but with no idea of the output of light on them. The $10 one was a tiny led light which I presume you throw away when it wears out as it did not require any batteries or bulbs. I thought it may be be okay to clip to my magnifier that I sit on my pillow as it was so tiny, but then again, no idea of light output. Then I went to the new Super JoAnnes to check out Ott lights. Pricy, I think it was $69.99 for the table stand model but the sales clerk said they were the best - she had heard. They also sell a Tensor Vision Max which has a similar daylight bulb and light output for $32.99, it also felt a little lighter than the Ott. I was tempted but resisted as I did not have my 40% coupon with me. At the checkout I was given a flyer for this weekend with a 50% coupon for both Friday and Saturday, might make it worth struggling with the crowds! Has anyone heard of the Vision Max or used one?

Unfortunately, it really does not give out as much light as I'd like for Binche, and removing the shade might only make it a source of irritation for your neighbor/classmate. HOWEVER, I think I'll keep it because while I'll take a bigger, heavier, and brighter light to Denver, if there is a problem with electrical supply for the group I'm in, the IBBL will be surely better than no light! And I didn't move this to chat because I'm not a member of chat. Sorry. Still, I think that sufficient numbers of Arachnids are heading to Denver that this subject MIGHT still be welcome on Lace. I won't be offended if told otherwise!!
