Desktop light for succulents

I have this cheap-o desktop plant lamp right now:

But I want to step it up a notch.
Suggestions? I'm totally OK w/ buying a new fixture.

kthanks!

When you said cheap-o I was thinking it would be in the region of £10 not £134!

What do you need the light for? Is it one plant or a group of plants?

I've seen it to be in the region of 45 dollars. Still a bit on the higher side with regard to cost. I suppose your succulents are light dependent? There are some that you can grow without artificial light. I suppose yours is an issue of photoperiodism. There is such a fixture in my country that emits wavelengths in the range required for photosynthesis. I can always research for details on request.

What kind of succulents are you growing? most will do fine under a 60 w light

Hi everyone! Sorry, life happened and I haven't been able to get online. I'm not using a t5 ho setup. It's working great!
