Detailed work is easier under a light first built by someone who does it every day.
Gary has led our workshop for 28 years, and when the light at his bench was not good enough, he built his own from the industrial-grade parts he works with every day.
The Gary Light uses an LED designed for demanding industrial work, and only 50 have been made.
Where should I clip it?
Clip it to the edge of your desk, shelf or bench, then bend the arm so the light falls on your work rather than in your eyes.
Shape your light to whatever job is in front of you.
Choose a tight spot for fine work or a wider beam for bigger jobs.
Three beam filters come with it, at 20°, 30° and 36°.
Your light stays exactly where you aim it.
The 500mm flexible arm holds its position without drooping.
It holds on firmly to anything up to 40mm thick.
The high-tension clip takes a firm, two-handed squeeze to open, which is what stops it slipping.
Use it for years without ever changing a bulb.
The built-in LED is rated for about 30,000 hours.
