I'm about the same way as the lights goes. Many times I have to move a light around to see the tye. I have a light overhead, one to my left & right and still have dark spots on the smaller stuff.

Been looking at the Peak light myself. It should have a bunch of light and be cool to opperate, but I'm hessitaing because it isn't magnified!!! But I guess you could always wear a magnifier.

Just bought a light like that for the guys to work on the guns at work!!!!!!!! If you order one make sure to check what the magnification is, they have different strengths.

Ott lamps - I really like the different models they have. Not to hard to find at the swap meet (flea market).

Working as a gunsmith for many years I became accustomed to using a mag light. Now that the old eye sight is getting bad, I have found this type of light essential for tying jigs down to 1/100. This brand was Luxo..
