JanInVA ... LED lights are cool. It's the halogen lights that are hot.
I had a halogen light for hand sewing that burned out recently. The clear light was great for sewing, but at times I would get too hot working under it. So, the replacement will be an LED, when I find one.

What I have learned during my search, is that the technology for LED is not consistent yet. Eg. you can find a 2 watt that is extremely bright .... and another one that is not. That's the problem I have been having ... finding one with the goose neck length I need with enough brightness of light.
