Great light. Bright enough to light up 2 sheets very uniformly, even on the low setting. Battery life seems good also.
Works Great
It works great. Has two brightness settings
Worth its weight in gold
Definitely a great purchase. Has proven itself a number of times as I have had to apply extra light in order to read my music. Many stages and practice venues don't allow for sufficient light. This light source is a God send.
Not just for musicians!
I collect antique lapel pins, a hobby that often requires close inspection of a piece. Lighting in our house leaves a lot to be desired. The orchestra light is a perfect solution: it's portable, easy to charge, clamps easily wherever I'm working, is really bright, and doesn't cast any weird shadows on the piece. Nathan's customer service is the nonpareil!
The Christmas Light
I bought my wife this light for a Christmas present.
Now, she is very hard to buy gifts for and she normally returns gifts that I give her. She loved this light! it's 18 LED's are nice and bright! Even the dim setting provides a nice light, but the bright setting is really the best.
Best clip on light period
This is an awesome product
Over size clip perfect
Thanks Sweetwater
Thanks on-stage products
Lights just right
The light is designed well, got here way faster than I expected. Really pleased with the product, would recommend it to a friend.
Light where you need it!
We had a half-blind guest accompanist come in who requested more light on the organ & piano. Ordered these Tuesday night, had them before her practice on Friday, & she loved it. My only reason for not giving it a full 5 stars is because of the design of the front of the clip. They should have tried to make it flatter so it didn't push out tall binders of music away from the stand. I haven't tested how long the light lasts when unplugged & on, but it made it through two services with a half hour between just fine. I would highly recommend it!
Bright Light
Works great. Good illumination level, good battery life, and rechargeable. Great for a piano not close to an outlet.
Great light
Light weight, bright, rechargeable. What more could you want? A USB C connector instead of a stupid micro USB. Other than that, perfect.
Wobbly
The light is great! It lights an entire score evenly. The rechargeable battery is a great idea, and if you have it plugged in and forget to turn it off it won't be dead tomorrow. BUT, the little clip was apparently designed for a smaller light and isn't up to supporting this larger light. If you bump the stand it tends to flop over. On Stage, you are very close to having the best music stand light. Rethink that clip and you'll have it.
Good light, weak clamp
Nice adjustable light and arm.
Clamp could be a little stronger. Also the way it's designed it doesn't clamp onto a basic metal Manhasset stand too well.
Nice but problems with the cord connection
I've had this lamp for over a year. It was the perfect until the cord connection started giving me problems making it difficult to charge the battery. Tried to fix with scotch tape, could not.
Garbage!
I ordered my first one about 6 weeks ago. I had to return it because it would not stay on, would just randomly turn itself off which of course is completely unacceptable when I'm performing in a dark space. I received the second one and it does the same exact thing. It's not a matter of overheating because it's only been on for 10 minutes and suddenly it shuts off.I turn it back on and within 2 minutes it has turned itself off again. It is a beautiful bright light when it is working, but cannot be trusted. I'm disgusted. I'd give it zero stars if I could.
When Love goes South
At first we loved each other's company. My needs were met. I was happy. Then, in a matter of months, the betrayals started: it would not charge or hold a charge. THEN, one day as I was fiddling with it to try to see what was going on, the micro-USB port broke off, shouted, "Geronimo!" and did a deep dive into the black hole guts of the thing, never to be seen again. I now have an expensive piece of junk. Don't cry for me...
