Hey guys
Just thought i'd share this video with you on the Daylight Lamps i've been using for quite some time now for painting and hobby'ing.
I've used the IKEA Tertial Lamp (8.99 Eur, 8.99 USD) and fitted a DAYLIGHT 32W 2100 LM E27 Bulb in it (22.99 Eur, 20 USD) Brand is named DAYLIGHT.
It worked out great i actually have 4 of them for about a year now and they still work great. They get hot but never overheat or break down or anything so far.
I've also added and good alternative which are the LIVARNO daylight lamps they sell at LIDL supermarkets a few times per year for only 20 Euro (Lamp and bulb included, not sure they have LIDL in US though)
That one is 20W though but still a good buy imo, i'd recommend checking for them now and then.
Anyways here's a short video for those interested, Cya

I did the same thing with a flippin Daylight Flood bulb.
pro tip. flood lights are way heavy for one of those swing arm lamps

Nice
Yea sometimes you need to gamble a bit to find out what works. I got lucky with these ones

Go to Hobby Lobby. Use the "50% off one item" coupon they have plastered on their ad in every Sunday newspaper and buy an Ottlite of your choosing that suits your need. Done.

Hey nice1 ! Thanks for sharing
