Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the lamp is fully charged. Connect the charging cable and allow it to charge for the recommended duration. Check that the touch dimmer area is clean.

Light is dim even on the brightest setting

The battery may be low. Charge the lamp fully. If the issue persists after a full charge, contact customer support.

Ensure the surface of the touch control is clean and dry. Try restarting the lamp by ensuring it's fully off and then back on (if there's a power switch) or by charging it.

Uneven light distribution or shadows
