I need a magnifier as well. I found this light. Anyone familiar with this brand? https://www.magnifyingaids.com/4X_Bright_White_LED_Desk_Lamp_Magnifier-6.5_Inch_Round?zenid=951559cf8b39055a5cd5428c2e9656fb
Get a headband magnifier instead, trust me you'll be MUCH happier.
Lights with with built in magnification have magnifying glasses that get in the way of many trying operations like winding materials, dubbing loops or even thread.
A headband magnifier is the way to go with many different lenses or strengths available so you can find a comfortable working distance, even later as your eyes get weaker with age.
You also can buy the best light for your needs without compromising just because it has a magnifier.
There are lots of brands like Hat Eyes, Optivisor (the brand I use) and a WHOLE bunch of knock-offs. Some even have lights attached!!
Good luck!
