The genuine Solux desk lamp with diffuser, not the knock-off stuff that just use the 4700oK solux bulbs. I have several of the knock-offs and there is no comparison. I dont bother adjusting the voltage with external gadgets; just plug it into the wall and use it.

Assuming a calibrated monitor and the desire to match print output to said monitor, exactly how are you folks judging your print output? More to the point, how does one create a controlled, comparative evaluation environment, in a home/hobbist/student situation, that allows this to happen. Seems to be an important, yet not much discussed requirement, especially if one is trying to make decisions on value and delicate (warm-cool) color tone from screen to print. I suppose some of the pros in the group are using expensive, dimable, color correct view instruments like those from GTI or MacBeth, but these seem a bit much for the home/hobbist/student to use. Can anyone describe a low cost solution that works for them.
