Few tools are as indispensable as a desk lamp. Whether you are writing by hand, using the computer, or putting together a computer, working at a desk requires adequate lighting to be done efficiently and comfortably.

We’ll get into these later, but for now it suffices to say that LED lamps have a lot to offer and are definitely worth considering.
