Any particular reason it has to be battery powered?
The Nessie is designed to work on a record cleaning machine
Hi
I tried an LED Ikea one that I thought would be great. But it introduced a buzzing through the turntable. As it needs to be quite close to the turntable. So I just thought instead of trying out other types of lights a battery one might be the way to go. It would only be used for putting records on at night. Looks like their isn’t much choice.

...it's the sort of thing the turns up in the 'Middle of Lidl'.
Have a look and see what CPC have got available.
(I installed a ceiling light specifically above my turntable).
P.S. I like George Duke too 👍
There will be Paul, don't worry about that.
Keep watching this thread for links.......
lol
I’ll check out CPC
yeah George Duke ! Always smiled when playing, beautiful human being That came out in his music. That track though, ‘fill the need’ total reference track
The Nessie it says comes with double sided adhesive pads that attach to its magnet thing, so it can be used as a turntable lamp. Not just for use with the record cleaning machines.

Its specifications would indicate it isn’t tall enough. I suppose maybe it could magnetically attached to a little square of metal with a felt base?
ummm that’s got me thinking now……..

I bought a couple of black ones of these, suited my purpose with a bit of adaption (I hacked off the USB connector) ....as long as they get 5v DC from somewhere:

Pioneer PLX1000 has a pop-up cueing light, think the Technics have as well, more TT's should have them.
