Best Portable or Clip on Light/Magnifier for Stitching
 
I will be stitching in the car for several hours, but am accustomed to using my Dazor magnification floor lamp at home. I'm thinking I'm going to need some magnification and light in the car.

What light/magnifier do you like for portability?

Thanks!

I have a Mighty Bright one which has a 2-led light head on a bendable stem and a magnifier also on another bendable stem. The base can be clipped onto something or placed on something metallic, because it is magnetic underneath. The magnetic bottom part can also be removed, to use the clip base only. I like it alot. I forget exactly how much it cost---think it was around $35. I'm sure you can find it if you google it. Good luck!

I have one of these - beam and read - I haven't used it very much, because I haven't done that much hand work where it was needed, but the light is awesome.

I use a Belkin eReader light that slips onto my embroidery hoop.
