I think I prefer the older version, especially with what Jilly mentioned below, and that scratching problem, that would be very irritating for me. Design flaw there as well. Thanks for showing us Andrew. Much appreciated. Ill stick to my photography led lights for now. Much more flexible, customizable, and the saving can be spent on more important tools. Great video. Thanks Andrew and everyone.
I'll have the Neatfi XL 2,500 Lumens LED Task Lamp coming in on Thursday, it's the same as your larger one. I bought that largely on your review of it here, I was going for the 2,200 Lumens model and did love the look of the shade shape, but the larger model has more brightness, better easier to vacuum arms, and a much better switch control configuration. I work on watches, mostly COA work etc.
Andrew i bought a standard lamp quite a while ago before the world went wild for them as being it was cheap 15quid i think, then i bought a daylight bulb for 5quid ok cant alter the light no led no dimmer switch nothing of that nature but i can move the lamp its self up down left right great stuff and all for 20quid.
It's a shame the new one doesn't have the 3 different colours of light that the previous model has - I've always preferred the warm light as it is easier on my eyes. Loved the old one - mine stopped working last week after 2 years, but neither the old one nor the new one can be mended or have a new light unit, which is very sad.
As you are reviewing tools, I hope you don't mind a question on a different tool. I was looking at Foredom Flex Shaft and saw that they were available with 4 mm or 6 mm flex shafts. Which should I be looking for and what is the difference?
I think the design is bad 1. Poor ARM design, the position of the knob limits the angle adjustment of the lampshade 2. Paint is easy to leave fingerprints 3. Electroplated iron parts look cheap Does anyone know where it's made? I can't find anything about it on the box or on the website
I find the arm very good if I am honest. If the know gets in the way then turning the light around 180 degrees solves this problem. The finish does not leave your finger prints on it as it is a Matt finish. Iron parts? Not sure what those parts are. We have several of these units and use them day in day out. And stand by them for their durability and they do exactly what they are made to do.
@@Atthebench 1. When you put the installation position on the side of the table, and then turn the lampshade 90 degrees, you will find that the lampshade cannot be tilted smoothly, because the knob stops the lampshade 2. The rotation of the lampshade is not smooth, you have to use some force to turn it 3. I think the lamp arm of the dentist's chair is a really reliable design 4. The origin is still a mystery
