Light for Hegner

I bought a light with my Hegner last Sept. Somehow the cord got pinched and blew out the light. I really liked it and like how it mounted on a bracket that came with the saw. Advanced Machinery wants $169 plus shipping for a new one. Does anyone have a source where I can get one for less?

Harbor Freight has one for about $40 that comes with either a clamp bracket or the post for the Hegner mount.

I bought an Ottlite with 2 lenses.  I looked at others and the optical quality was not as good.  The one I have is easy to see thru with a fairly large area which is in focus.  More expensive...yes but easier on my eyes.

I bought my light at Joann Fabrics and used one of their 40% off coupons.

I also found that for me, I did not like the light attached to the saw.  The vibrations from the saw in the news cause eye strain. I mount the light on the work bench next to my saw.

I had a light mounted on my Hawk and moved it to a shelf next to the saw. That little flickering from vibration drove me nuts.

Dave I just replaced the lamp on my hegner I looked at many lights but finally settled on a Luxo . It uses the same mounting bracket . The magnifying power is 5 diopter. I’m very happy with this light. No more headache.

Bill, That's what I had and liked it. Advanced machinery want $169 plus shipping for a new one. I'm having a tough time spending that much. I will admit that I am tight at times.

There is a huge difference between being "tight" and being "stupid".
