Product Description



As we age, our eyes naturally lose some of their ability to focus close-in. A teenager can focus on objects as close as 3" but by age 50 that distance can increase to 18" - VERY frustrating when it limits your work or hobby. This premium-grade lamp is a simple and effective solution for seeing almost anything bigger, better and brighter. Twin 9-watt U-type fluorescent bulbs provide excellent task lighting with less heat (<100 degrees vs. 350+ for incandescent bulbs) and reduced shadows and glare - while using less energy! 34" arm has unique balanced cantilever mechanism that allows position adjustment with just light touch - and then holds it. Weighted platform keeps lamp from tipping when extended. Lamp-head swivels, tilts and rotates with adjustable tension. 5-diopter lens (2.25x) has focal range of 7-9". Removable flip-up dust cover protects and helps keep lens clean. Lamp platform 8" x 12", 20 lbs. Steel tube arm with durable Classic White enamel finish. Also available in 3-diopter, clamp-on style and wheeled floor lamp. On/off switch conveniently located on lamp head; 72" power cord, UL-listed.


  • Professional quality UL listed lamp provides efficient daylight-spectrum fluorescent light
  • Large 7 x 5" optical-quality precision ground lens shows fine detail with excellent clarity
  • 5-diopter magnification enlarges print, text and work pieces to 225% actual size; lens dust cover
  • Automatic memory arm adjusts position with finger touch and then holds it; 3-way swivel lamp head
  • Anti-tip base without clamps or attachment; UL-listed lamp with convenient lamp-head power switch

5.0 out of 5 stars Commercial Quality - very large, August 15, 2008

This review is from: 2-in-1 Spring-Arm Magnifier Desk Lamp - Large 7" X 5" Lens - 5 Diopter
I purchased this magnifier/lamp for the purpose of using it to read small numbers on financial documents. I had been using a small hand-held magnifier with only a 2x or 3x power. This was very inadequate because it left my eyes feeling strained.

This magnifier/lamp looks much smaller in the picture. When the FedEx driver left it at my door, I had to struggle to just lift the box up from the ground. It weighed 20 pounds. I opened the box and immediately noticed the magnifier/lamp was much larger than I had expected. It reminded me of the equipment that you see at the dentist's office i.e. the light-device that the dentist moves over your face to examine your teeth. It comes in two pieces that you have to assemble. Due to the weight and awkwardness of the two pieces, you may need two people to put it together. I did it myself but it was a struggle.

The base of the magnifier/lamp takes up a large space on a table or desk. 12 inches wide and 10 inches deep... Read more

I bought this product because I paint miniature figures as a hobby. This works very well light up and magnify the miniature so I can see the how the detail painting looks closeup..
The base is nice and heavy so I don't worry about knocking the light off my work table. In combination with the helping hands holders the work on my miniatues goes more quickly and my work is of a higher quality.
Highly recommended

4.0 out of 5 stars May not be for everyone, May 3, 2008
This review is from: 2-in-1 Spring-Arm Magnifier Desk Lamp - Large 7" X 5" Lens - 5 Diopter
My 88 year old mother-in-law asked for this to help her in her hobby work. She is legally blind with macular degeneration, but a well lit magnifier helps. She had a low cost 3x purchased at local home improvement store but wanted a larger lens, higher power and better light. After trying this 5x magnifying lamp out, she has gone back to the old one. She found this too heavy, hard to position, and the light didn't suit her. I think it is great, and my wife and I can use it for our projects. It was not obvious (instructions are in poorly transliterated Chinese to English) that the head can be rotated sideways. I just noticed that from the photo as I wrote this review. It moves only after a lot of force is applied. (Also it was difficult to fit the very stiff wire into the base when inserting the lower end of the arm.) I felt I might break it, but it went. This makes it much easier to position, so maybe Mom will find it usable, now. Still, she did have other issues with it. Most serious... Read more
