not OP, but I'd recommend Black Diamond or Petzl. I use the Black Diamond Spot 350. Three AAA batteries, 3oz, and it has a button lockout so it doesn't get activated when packed or stored away.
It makes sense. If a world leader claims that he won an election with 99% of the vote, we assume it was a fraudulent election.
The thing is, in American capitalism, bosses want their underlings to think they have input and think decisions are made by consensus when, in reality, the "right answer" was preselected, and the politically savvy know what it is. Corporates don't actually want workers to have say. They just want the workers to work as hard, and buy in as much, as they would if they actually had a say.
This is also why venture funded companies give employees token stock option allocations even though the percentages are actually a joke. In exchange for options that might be worth $5,000 per year by fair market value, the workers work 50% harder because enough of them are young and inexperienced enough to think they "own the company" in a meaningful way.
Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap...And Others Don't - Jim Collins. His concept of "bullets before cannonballs" has stuck with me for every project/job/company.
"It’s a comment piece. It doesn’t contain any new research, nor does it contain statistical analysis of previous research. It’s not a meta-analysis or a systematic review. It is a short essay in the ‘For Debate’ section of the journal in which one woman gives her opinion about whether correlation equals causation when it comes to the epidemiological evidence on alcohol and cancer."
I was looking into the Jarvis legs (similar price point, $490 that has programmable heights) and using a cheap Ikea top. Don't know about sturdiness...but the reviews look good.
We bought these for our coders at my previous company and I still own one at home. Works great still after 3 years. I bought an IKEA bekant tabletop for it http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/40253236/ which was plenty of space.
I find a monitor riser is required as well for actually standing up and not craning my neck.
