Just realized I bought a $400 drafting table light that was a total waste.

Saw a fancy LED light online for detailed drafting work. The ad said it eliminated all shadows. Bought it six months ago. It's way too bright and makes my eyes hurt after an hour. My old desk lamp from the hardware store worked better. Anyone have a good light that's actually comfortable for long nights?

Feel your pain, those super bright LEDs are brutal. I just use a cheap adjustable lamp with a warm bulb now.

Honestly calling all LEDs brutal is a huge stretch. The cheap warm bulb you use is probably an LED too, just a different color. The bright white ones are way better for actually seeing what you're doing, like reading or working on stuff. Tbh my eyes got used to them after a week and now anything else feels too dim.
