I'm buying a new loupe light and I'm looking to see if anyone has any advice? I have never had one and would like a good deal. But, it's very important that it is a quality light.
I originally had the Designs for Vision headlamp. High quality light, very nice. However I hated wearing on my head so I sold it on ebay and bought the lumadent at group discount w/ a few other students. It ended up being $330 for everything. For that price its not a bad light, does its job. I think the components like the battery back holder and the clips are really cheap, but other than that I have no complaints. The ultralight is a nice light. The sales girls like to say that it's very durable and they demonstrate that point by slamming it on the counter. But with the student discount they charge $495 plus another $30 or $40 for the composite filter. That's way overpriced. If you're an ASDA officer then you can go to the national meeting an get an ultralight for $300 but other than that I would go with the lumadent.
