HI - I have this light on both of my machines and it is on before the machine is on. They are always a good price and good service at quilting warehouse.com. I am amazed that more quilt shops are not using them - can not have anything to do with Grandma's young eyes!!

i'm wondering why they would sell an additional bracket 'in case the original one breaks'.

FYI ... I have that one and it's good. However, I find the electric cord a nuisance. I was at my LQS yesterday and they just got a shipment of battery operated ones in. Just as bright and much better, in that there's no power cord to deal with.

A great little gaget for aging eyes! I got a new Bernina 440 QE and it has a wonderful, bright light in the sewing area. It also has a stop/start button for when my knee gets sore from pressing the foot pedal. I think the machine manufacturers are aware that sewers are aging and are putting in more user friendly features. Soon I may get the magnifying glass attachment for close work.

My mom gave me one of these and I was skeptical - finally attached it to my machine and wish I had done it sooner. Who knew how dark it really was under there!
I think the extra mounting kits are so you can move from machine to machine - and I also used the cord keeper clips and ran the cord along the back of my Bernina so it's not in my way.
