FWIW:  My wife's hobby is needlepoint, which is, and I'm not making this
up, as expensive as ham radio can be.  (This has worked well for me
since we agreed long ago to an "equal hobby allowance" policy)  She has
one of these lights, and when I ask her to read color codes for me it's
always that light source she uses.  I can't give you a first person
account of it's value, however ... I'm colorblind and all the little
colored bands look pretty much alike to me.

Fortunately, on the K2, Elecraft supplied the resistors taped in the
order of installation.  I measured each one, but didn't have to hunt the
right one down.
