Am I the only person that likes to use blue LED light to better see what I'm doing?

I have a little blue LED bar, but thinking about getting something like this;

That's all supposedly 450nm "Royal Blue", won't sustain corals but might be really useful for fragging.

Any other cheap suggestions out there? Not looking to dump more than $30 on a light just for fragging :D
 
I just hold it under my display tank light while I'm cutting it haha, but this is a great idea if you have a dedicated frag cutting area. I'm tight on space as is so I have to make due with what I have. :)
 
Do you use a magnifying glass too? I'm being serious.

I've seen a Youtube Video or two where folks use those "Hobby Hands" with a magnifying glass attachment on them when cutting some frags:

That's exactly why I was asking! I make my son wear safety glasses and I was looking for a hands-free option. Thank you!!!
 
Depends how and what you're cutting. A magnifying glass may be useful for dremel work with small zoa colonies.

Here's my current frag station.
