Description

The Wafer Light Box from the Daylight Company is a super thin, sleek light box which is only 0.8cm in depth.

  • It has dimmable LEDS, an on/off switch and provides an even spread of light from edge to edge.
  • It is powered by an AC adaptor, which is included and it emits very little heat when compared to other light boxes.

The Wafer is portable and easy to use and it comes in three sizes - to fit comfortably working in up to either an A4, A3 or A2 size. It would be the perfect tool of any artist requiring a slimline lightbox and could be the perfect gift for anyone working in illustration, graphic design, calligraphy, stencilling, scrapbooking, to name only a few creative pastimes that might benefit from using this great looking tool.

30th January 2018 Reviewed by Artist This is clipped to my easel (sloping, not upright). The light is excellent, good for colour as far as I can tell and an even spread all over the easel. The only slight problem is that the screw that holds the lamp arm into the base is quite small and it doesn't grip the arm quite well enough, so that over time the lamp head swings down over the easel. I don't think this would be a problem if you were working on the level (flat or upright) and it's not a deal breaker for me but could be improved.
