LightView PRO LED Magnifying Clamp

I bought these in 2022 and I’ve been using them ever since. Still going strong with no issues. I think they’re great value for the money. I work with crystal/minerals. I have one of these set up where I process material and another one set up where I photograph and take videos. They work perfectly for my needs. I love that they’re on adjustable swiveling arms so that I can move them to different positions easily. The head of the light also rotates from side to side so you can tilt it to different angles for your liking this is also very handy. The color of the light and the brightness is also adjustable which is a nice feature that some of the other lights don’t have. Also, the magnifying lens on top is very handy at certain times. My eyes are pretty good so I don’t use that feature too often, but it has been a lifesaver here and there. I would definitely recommend these.

This is an incredible lamp. It's very durable, maneuvers easily, has extremely bright LEDs ( 9 watts, 800 Lumens) & allows for adjustment from cool to warm color temp (ranging between warm 3,000 Kelvin and cool 6,000 Kelvin). My wife is a Blythe doll customizer & needs to work very closely on her work when she's sculpting or painting. She's used headlamp magnifiers, reading glasses, etc.. but nothing has ever worked "quite right." I've used fluorescent magnifier lamps for years & asked her if she would like to try one out that would be brighter & would not get hot. She was all in. So we purchased this unit from Brightech as it allowed for super magnification (225% across a 3" lens). Another important feature was the ability to adjust the color temperature of the light. So she could simulate natural daylight (as close as can be simulated) while she was working. The unit arrived quickly & was boxed well from the manufacturer. Amazon did a good job packing as well (which is not always the case). The unit assembled in a few minutes with the included desk clamp & was ready to test. One thing to note..this lamp ships ONLY with a DESK CLAMP. It does not come with any other type of mounting bracket. So if your desk has no lip, then you will either need to drill a hole in the desk, purchase a different kind of mount or build a bracket (this is what I ended up doing) to attach to the desk then attach the clamp to that. The pic I included was the unit briefly attached at my workspace using the desk clamp. So now we come to the part about being potentially TOO STRONG. If you aren't used to using a magnifier lamp of this power, then there will be an adjustment period. Especially with a 225% magnification. If you're using this lamp for things like reading, crosswords or jigsaw puzzles, then it should be a breeze as the stuff your magnifying won't move much. But it still may take a bit to get your eyes adjusted. However, she was working with sculpting tools, her Dremel, paint brushes, etc.. & was constantly bumping the lamp with her tools trying to gauge her distance. So the lamp would shake & move slightly each time. The other potential concern was the actual magnification. It's so strong in the center, but if you move off to the sides where the optics go out of focus, you can feel a little dizzy. And again, this all comes with the acclimation period. This is something you would probably get used to over time. Outside of those concerns, this lamp is otherwise awesome. I've already comendered it for reading serial numbers off of small electronic parts, doing repairs that would otherwise require a headlamp & magnifying glasses or reading manuals or documentation that seem to shrink in size each year. It's easy to set up, easy to move out of the way when not in use, the LED lamps will last forever & Brightech will even extend their already exceptional 3 year warranty to 5 years just for registering your product. Overall, I would say a excellent lamp for just under $70.00 to the door (with Prime). Oh, and if you need a non-stationary version of this item, Brightech offers a rolling model. It's the same lamp (Brightech LightView PRO) but with a 6 wheel base.

I’ve been using the Brightech LightView magnifying floor lamp daily since 2019 in my electrolysis practice. After six solid years of reliable use, the plastic casing on the lamp head finally cracked (understandable, since I often reposition it by the head instead of the base). I purchased this desk version as a replacement, and it fits the bill perfectly. (The desk version lamp fits directly into the floor base previously purchased.) The brightness is fully adjustable, the magnification is crystal clear, and the optical quality is excellent—I can easily see individual hair follicles, which is essential for my work. The articulating arms move smoothly, and once positioned, they stay put. It's sturdy, well-made, and performs just as well—if not better—than the original. I’ve already repurchased it and would absolutely do so again. Great value for the quality. I just hope Brightech eventually offers a version with even stronger magnification as I get older!

I started using it now and what I can say is that it exceeded my expectations. A few years ago I had a Dazor similar to this one, whose arm rusted despite the environment (my office) being free of corrosive factors in the air, as it happens near beaches. In addition, the lamp/lens assembly was heavy and supported by a joint that was not always able to keep it in the adjusted position. I consider this Brightech lamp to be a very well engineered device, whose mechanical operation is smooth and pleasant, as if the lens were floating in the air, always keeping itself adjusted in position (level, inclination) regardless of a change in the angle of the arm (thanks to a mechanism which makes the appropriate correction). As for the finish, its appearance impresses well. I believe it will have good durability, without the corrosion problem (rust) that I had on the Dazor, because most of the external area of the arm is made of non-ferrous material. The lighting is good and quite versatile to adjust to the user's needs. For my personal taste, it would be even better if the day light and cool white intensity adjustments could be reduced to zero, thus resulting in a single color temperature (turning off the yellow or white LEDs completely). In the product description (GREAT FOR WORK BENCH OR CRAFT TABLE) there is information: “The lamp is plugin operated and works with 110v - 220v outlets; you would just need to use a plug adapter to use it outside of the US, as the plug is made to fit standard US AC outlets”. However, the label on the bottom of the lamp/lens assembly I received says “120V / 60Hz 1-9 W”. In November 2017 (Customer questions & answers) a Brightech USA seller informed that at that time only the 120V model was manufactured. Therefore, I believe that the bi-volt information in the product description is wrong. Fortunately, and just in case, I connected it to a stabilizer with a 120V output, as the voltage in my city is 220V. BE CAREFUL NOT TO DESTROY YOUR LAMP !!! All in all, I am quite happy with the purchase and would recommend the Brightech LightView Pro Magnifying Desk Lamp, 2.25x as I believe it is a good product at a very affordable price.

I got tired of using a hand magnifier to work on small parts so I bought this to help. The construction is relatively sturdy and the lighting is very good. The adjustment of the arm could be a little smoother which leads me to the first issue. The intensity and brightness adjustment touch controls are right near the handle. When I am doing close work and reach for the handle I always change the settings unintentionally. This was clearly designed by someone who never had to use it. Although the magnification is good you are constantly adjusting the distance of the lamp to the object you are working on. Either way it is much better than holding a hand magnifier or wearing a magnifying head band.

I LOVE this lamp! I use it wherever I am when I'm working on paperwork, calligraphy, art, EVERYTHING! It has a decent magnifying glass with the well-thought-out cover that opens & shuts over the outside of the glass directing the light downward instead of half the light being lost when the glass is not in use. The things I like most about this light & why are: 1. It has Full Spectrum Daylight LED bulbs. Full Spectrum light illuminates better than any other light which greatly decreases my eye strain, reducing the number of headaches I have. Also the full spectrum daylight helps me stay alert. If I find myself nodding off with concentration waning, I rotate the light to where it shines upon my face and it does help. 2. The light that's emitted is fully adjustable. You can not only increase & decrease the total amount of light; you can increase/decrease both red/yellow spectrum light and the blue/violet spectrum light independently. (I've also discovered that after turning the light on if I slowly tap both red & blue light increase arrows that as the light increases it will suddenly "jump" to a brilliant light output which illuminates everything on, under & around my desk! 3. It's infinitely adjustable with an internal balancing- counterbalancing mechanism that positions and holds the lamp perfectly in place eliminating the need to screw and unscrew bolts at every joint. 4. The last thing is probably the most important. The C-vise grip that secures the lamp to furniture is separate from the lamp & lamp arm. No matter where I've moved this lamp I'm able to do so without help. I fasten the C-vise grip where I want it then pick up the lamp and slide the rod that's at the base of the lamp arm into the "sleeve" on the vise grip and it's installed! I'm definitely going to buy more of these lamps in the future!

Although I rarely leave reviews, I needed to write one for this light because it is that nice. Set up took 30 seconds, to easy (clamp it, set the lamp into the hole of the clamp). The light is white, as opposed to yellow bulbs that are usually considered white. This make reading so much easier and better than regular lights. The magnifying glass is clear, covers a large area, and magnifies well and large. Once you angle the round light/Magnifying glass part of the light the way you want it, the round part stays at the angle you put it as you move the arms (in any direction and height). This light is no joke, it's solid and very well made. Measurements. The clamp opens up to about 2 1/2 inches. Each part of the arm measures about 18 inches long, for a total length of about 36 inches (two arms only). The entire round part that encompasses the light and magnifying glass measures about 9 1/2 inches in diameter, and about 1 1/2 inches thick. There is an additional 1 inch between the end of the arm and the round part. The magnifying glass itself is about 4 3/4 inches in diameter, with a center (focus) diameter of about 3 inches. If you slightly angle the round part (top) toward you, the entire 4 3/4 area of the magnifying glass works with no distortion at all. The viewing area is actually much larger than 4 3/4 inches. It's actually quite impressive and easy to use. The light switch obviously has an on and off, but there are 2 different settings you can use. One is for what I will refer to as a white light (clear and easy to read), the other is a yellow light, which many people think is white. Each of the lights has its own "touch" setting that will dim or brighten the light with a range of 6 settings each. I am so impressed with this light, I think I'll buy another one. Well worth the money, even at a high price!

I first purchased the smaller magnifier. It works just fine and I am happy with it but with the frequency of use for me I decided to try the larger one. The larger one is much easier to maneuver. It can be adjusted with just a finger. The smaller may require both hands at times, especially when using the base rather than the clamp. The larger one is clamp only since it is too big for a base. The photos of the two are maybe a little deceptive of the size. The larger one dwarfs the smaller one. I much prefer the larger one because with one finger I can pull the magnifier/lamp all the way over my desk which helps me with reading a book in my lap. Very useful with my diminishing eyesight. A nice feature of the smaller one are three different light colors with a button to change between them and two more buttons for the brightness level. The controls are on an inline switch on the USB cable. The switch is small and not good quality with the face of each little button already coming loose in short time. It is shown in the photo of the base and clamp that comes with it. The larger one has two sets of controls for the two colors it provides with brightness level buttons for each set. An on/off button is at the top of the magnifier with the brightness/color controls at the bottom. That is an advantage since it's easier to reach than trying to find the switch on the cable of the smaller one. The larger magnifier may look like it casts light up but it doesn't. I will swivel 90 degrees but not 180 so it will not cast light on the ceiling either. It will swivel straight up so that the light is directly in your face if needed. The smaller one will swivel 180 if you wanted to use it as a room light. Since it is short though you will see the bare light if you are standing up. Finally the larger is more elegant in design with no springs in view. Overall they are both good products. For repetitive stationary use where you won't need to move it often you can save money with the small one. For my use the larger one works much better.

Escelente calidad y apoyo para trabajos meticulosos

Es un producto muy bueno pero resultó algo pesado para la persona que lo compré ya que es una adulto mayor con poca fuerza

Este es de los peores productos que hay. Nunca funciono. Jamás volvería a comprar de la compañía. Jamás funciono la luz ámbar, mientras que la blanca solo parpadeaba. Me resulta increíble que algo tan básico tenga tantas fallas. No volveré a comprar NADA de Brightech. La tire a la basura y salí a comprar una lampara similar en una tienda, con garantía, sin fallas y sin los errores y tiempos de entrega de Brightech. Pésima experiencia con Brightech.
