I do a lot of crafting and while I do have a nice overhead light, it's not the best for intricate/detailed work. I also have a lot of electronic items, so free electrical outlets are rare. This lamp is rechargeable, so I don't have to worry about permanently losing the outlet space. Plus, since it doesn't have to be plugged in to work, I can easily take it with me if I need to work in a different place. The light lasts several hours on a single charge, and if need be, I can charge it from one of my power banks.
I love that it is hinged, so I can fold it when I'm not using it or easily position the light to shine right where I need it.
