For me, with Amazon Prime it is actually cheaper since Ikea wants $10 for shipping.
I have gone through 3 of these lights.
The weak point is the stupid non-standard plug on the light that plugs into the power "brick".
The first 2 lights have broken wires where they enter the plug.
I highly suggest putting some sort of strain relief on the wires to keep from over-bending them.
Other than that, love this light, and buy it in orange so its easy to spot when laying in a pile of parts!
Also, if this thing runs of 5V (which I think it does) then I plan to mod my 2 broken lights to have a USB on the end instead of the non-standard plug.

If that's the case, let us know if it works for you. It'd be nice to use it with a small iphone charger cube if that's the case.
