Vent: everyone pushed me toward the fancy LED work light, but I picked the $22 halogen clamp lamp for the library
Six months in, that cheap halogen has survived more drops than our $90 LED, and the members fighting over the outlets have stopped because the lamp has its own switch, so tell me I'm wrong about heat and all, but has anyone else found the cheap gear outlasts the nice stuff in a shared library?

Wait, a $22 lamp outlasted a $90 LED and kept up with all those drops? That part is hard to believe, but I bet the built in switch is the real hero here since nobody has to unplug things anymore. Cheap gear holding up better in a shared space makes sense when people are rough with it.
