JSI vs. Mighty Bright stand lights
I need to get a good stand light -- as much (or more) for practice at home as for performances. I have the Mighty Bright Duet light, and (for me) it's next to useless.
Last night at rehearsal I got to see and try some of the other Mighty Bright lights,and it looks as though the best choice for me would be the Orchestra one. Its current cost is ~ $60.
But I've also come across what appears to be virtually its twin that is branded and sold by Johnson String Instrument: The JSI ML-19 SuperWide. The cost of this is ~ $24.
Can anyone provide a comparison of these? Has anyone used the JSI light? I'm wondering about both durability and brightness. One concern is that several people have tried to find out how much light (in terms of lumens) this light emits, and have been pretty much stonewalled.
$35 is a big price differential, but I'd happily pay more if there is a distinct difference in quality.
