Product Information

Full details

The Gingko Octagon One Portable Desk Light is designed for anyone seeking stylish, sustainable, and flexible lighting for their workspace, bedside, or creative area. Its key benefit is the award-winning, multi-angle octagonal design that provides focused LED light precisely where needed, coupled with long-lasting cordless operation. A potential caveat is that the unique marble finishes, while beautiful, mean each lamp has a one-of-a-kind aesthetic, so your lamp's pattern may differ from product images. This lamp features a USB-rechargeable battery for up to 26 hours of illumination, four touch-controlled brightness levels, and is crafted from FSC-certified natural wood with a premium finish.

FAQs

How long does the battery last?

The battery can last anywhere from 7 to 48 hours depending on the brightness setting used. Higher brightness levels will reduce the overall battery life.

How long does it take to charge the lamp?

The Gingko Octagon One Portable Desk Light charges fully within approximately 3 to 4 hours.

What is the color temperature of the LED light?

The LED light is a warm white with a color temperature of 3700K.

Can I use the lamp while it's charging?

Yes, you can use the lamp while it is plugged in and charging.

Is the LED bulb replaceable?

No, the LEDs are integrated and designed for a long lifespan of approximately 50,000 hours, so they are not user-replaceable.

What does 'FSC-certified natural wood' mean?

It means the wood used in the lamp's construction comes from responsibly managed forests that have been certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), ensuring environmental and social responsibility.

How do I adjust the brightness?

Simply tap the touch-sensitive area on the base to cycle through the four available brightness levels.

What finishes are available?

The lamp is available in Black, Maple, Ash, Walnut, White, White Marble, Black Marble, and Aluminium finishes. Note that marble finishes have unique patterns.

Troubleshooting

Lamp does not turn on.

Ensure the lamp is fully charged. Connect it to a USB power source and check the charging indicator. Try a different USB cable and power adapter.

Light is dim even after charging.

Check if the lamp is set to a lower brightness level. Cycle through the brightness settings using the touch control. If the issue persists, the battery may need a full recharge cycle.

Touch controls are unresponsive.

Ensure your finger is making firm contact with the touch-sensitive area. Clean the base around the touch control with a dry cloth. If unresponsive, try a full charge cycle or reset by leaving it unpowered for a few minutes.

Battery life is significantly shorter than advertised.

Ensure you are using higher brightness settings, which consume more power. Extreme temperatures can also affect battery performance. Try to charge and discharge the battery fully a couple of times to recalibrate.

Care Instructions:
