There is more than one light, but they look to me that they are encased. I wonder if it is better to leave my sewing machine on all day, as I go back to it many times, or should I turn it off. There is a burst of electricity each time it is turned off and back on, same as the light bulbs in a home, so maybe leaving it on is easier on the whole mechanism.

Maybe I should just forget it, and turn it off when not in use. I worry that the light bulb will go out and I might have to take it to the repair shop for replacement. I have no room anywhere for an Ott light beside my sewing machine. Does anyone have experience with the LED encased lights on your sewing machine?
