This is basically the one I use. Got it a Michaels for around $120.00-ish IIRC.

Take a look at the Daylight as well. Great light, low heat.

I'm using an Ottlite. Full spectrum and not too pricey if you buy online.

This is my favorite Ottlite. nice and compact, great light coverage and easy on these old eyes. I can also pack it up easy when traveling or doing tying demos.
