I use "day light" fluorescent screw in bulbs, you can get them pretty reasonable at Wal-Mart in a wide variety of wattages.
I use them for light which seems a little more easy on the eyes.  I also use them in a photo box where I take pictures of my smaller type work.

  Hi Don,
   I have a floor model 27watt with goose neck which I really like, it appears to be exactly like the one you refer to but I bought it at Sears. My wife loves it and has moved it into her quilting room for the sewing machine.

    So I just ordered 2 more from the company that advertises in spring 2006 Carving Magazine ($49) - it is 27 watts which I found adequate but they have a bigger bulb also which may be better for lighting bigger areas?? www.balancedspectrum.com There are several different technologies of "full spectrum" lights and after reading a description of each technologies light characteristics I still couldn't figure out which technology would give the best light for woodcarving so went with the cheapest - which is a lot better than incandescent.

  Hello to all,
  Quick question for the group.  I am looking at the advertisement, in  this 
  months Carving Mag, for Balanced Spectrum lamps-Has anyone used one of  these 
  and how do you like it?  I am looking for a new lamp for my wife for  her 
  painting area.  She paints with watercolor and pastels most of the  time..  (She 
  even paints carvings for me!)
