The replaceable multiple multiple LED light will inevitably be coming to
American electricity. It works extremely well, and it's green. In the
meantime, my Withof teacher, Susie Johnson, always recommends the cheap IKEA
one incandescent bulb articulating arm lamp that sells for something like
$10. Unfortunately it is only available as the one that screws to the
table, and not with the cast iron base, so it can sit anywhere. They work
extremely well, we can still get the lightbulbs, incandescent, that work
with it, and the price is right. If you have something the equivalent of
the heavy cast iron base, or you can screw it to the edge of the table,
you're all set. For fine work, avoid florescent, as it does make a
difference. The inadequate Verilux LED lamp with about 12 LED's is no
longer for sale, but works for non-fine laces.
Lyn in Lancaster, were I can hardly wait for the warm weather that's
expected in a few days. We need that badly.

Hello All! Does anyone have any recommendations for task lighting??
Recently, my LED Ott light quit working but there was no way to open the
case to replace the bulbs. When I contacted the company, it turns out this
is a disposable light! You could have knocked me over with a feather.
Almost every company on earth is trying to find a way to make their products
"green" but maybe Ott didn't get the memo! Bottom line--can anyone suggest
an alternative that works with US electrical current? My other Ott lights
are the regular ones with replacement bulbs but the LED light source is
superior IMHO. Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Palm Beach Gardens, FLA, USA
