Workbench Magnifier Lamp Purchase

Unfortunately my eyesight isn't what it used to be, my nearsightedness has gotten worse the past two years. Now I'm thinking of buying a decent workbench magnifier lamp, like one of the Luxos. My basic question for people who have made such a purchase, did you go for the 3 or 5 diopter lens, which gives a magnification of 1.75x or 2.25x. The price is pretty much the same either way and I'm sort of leaning towards the 5 diopter. My only concern is that maybe too much magnification might introduce errors or distortion?

But get a *good* one. I got a cheap one first, and the quality was lacking, plastic lens, light was poorly distributed. My favorites are the ones with the circle bulb, and one that has two CFLs one on each side. That last one (I can post the model) was expensive (several hundred) but the circle bulb style are not so bad. |
