Mary Corbet Reviews the Rockler Magnifying LED Clamp On Light

Mary Corbet learned about a table clamped light/magnifier from Rockler, bought one, and reviews it here.

She links to the manufacturer's website so you can get more information and see more photos and a video. Note that the lens is said to be glass, not plastic.

It's not wildly expensive but it's not cheap either, so think carefully about how/where you stitch so you know if it will clamp to your table, if the power cord is long enough for you, if the magnification is enough, if an 18 inch long neck will work for you, etc.  Remember, this is an LED light so when the bulbs go out, you'll have to replace the whole thing.  I couldn't find how many hours the LEDs are supposed to last on the website.

Just remember, the many accessories offered for the System Four are usually sold separately instead of being included with the stand of your choice.   Here is the current pricing for these items--
