I have two Ott light bulbs in two different cheap standard light stands. Got the bulbs at a local "everything" store for $10.00 each.

Maybe mine are different? They are OTT-Lite 15W. Love them!

We have three, no four Ott lights in teh house. DH just bought one on sale from JA's with free shipping for his desk when doing his homework. Loves it and I have my floor one back for sewing.
I have never used the Ott bulbs in other lights in the house. Too expensive. HOwever, I have had my floor light for over 15 years and have only replaced teh bulb once which was last summer. I don't like the Daylight or other lights that imitate Ott's. I don't believe they are anywhere near the same.
Pay the price and you will not be sorry.

I have an "Ott Light". Love it, want to get another one, I'll have to check the other stores before I go to Joann's

Yes, Ott lights are worth the price I have two of them.
Watch Joann's add they have great sales.

i use daylight fluorescent bulbs from home depot in all the rooms of my house . Made a big difference this winter for lighting. See much better. Bought 100 ones for sewing room didn't have any problems . Could actually see good.

Yes, well worth it.

I've never used them but I need more lighting. I think I'll get me some. Thanks for the info.

Yes they are. I have two of them, one floor model and the other sits on top of my sewing table for times when I am sewing on black or very dark material. Easy on the eyes.
I bought mine when they were 50% off.

I've had some experience with Ott lights - bought a big one half price at Joanne's years ago. (Still spent almost $90!!) It worked for just over a year - then one day, it just quit! I tried replacing the bulb, tried replacing the electrical part on the cord - nothing. I wouldn't buy another one.
There are lights that do the exact same thing MUCH cheaper elsewhere. I got one at Big Lots for $19.99 or $29.99 a few months ago, and it's great for sewing on black fabric with black thread!! JMHO, but find a cheaper one than OTT.

They are excellent and show true colour when late night sewing.
