    Default Lighting/lamps

    Hi, I was thinking of getting a couple of those Ikea lamps that have been recommended on the forum:
    http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/l...-art-40370283/

    But I'm not sure what bulbs to use with it. Would these be ok do you think and would they be any good using with a lightbox?

    Any help would really be appreciated.

    Well the lamp's OK, but the spiral fluorescent would be far too bright for me.
    Mine is 11W not 25 and much cheaper in Sainsbury. Dennis

    The bulbs wouldn't be my first choice. Ikea do great LED bulbs now, which give a much whiter, brighter light (and are more energy efficient)

    Ok thank you Dennis & Lydia. I'll have a look at Sainsburys & the Ikea ones.

    I brought some 'daylight' bulbs off EBay which give a good 'white' light ideal for jewellers
