Wall mounted work light.

[Cato]

I need a wall mounted work light to use over the lathe, but that has a long enough articulated arm to use in front of it too. Bright as possible with say a metre or 1200 max reach. I have one similar to this from RS over the bench which is pretty good and I can get another but I thought I'd ask on here to see if anyone has anything else which they'd recommend.

Have a look at Ikea offerings. They might not be perfect but could be adapted

That's exactly what I have - an Ikea anglepoise copy.

I want one mounted on the wall that swings into position, or swings out of the way. It's one of those things that you don't use that often, but when you do it'll make life much easier.

Why not mount an LED batten on a pair of brackets above the lathe.

This is what I fitted above my lathe in place of the work light & it is millions better.
