Product Information

Full details

Its key benefit is providing customizable, flicker-free LED light with up to 26 hours of cordless use, thanks to its USB-rechargeable battery.

This award-winning lamp features an octagonal wooden or aluminum base that pivots, offering focused LED light at four adjustable brightness levels. Crafted from FSC-certified wood or premium aluminum, it's portable, lightweight, and available in various finishes, making it a stylish and eco-conscious addition to any setting.

What is the warranty period for this lamp?

Troubleshooting

Lamp does not turn on

Ensure the lamp is fully charged. Connect it to a USB power source for at least 3-4 hours and try again. Check that the USB cable and power source are functioning correctly.

Light flickers or is dim

The battery may be low. Charge the lamp fully. If the issue persists after charging, the LED may be nearing the end of its lifespan, though this is rare given their longevity.

Touch controls are unresponsive

Ensure the touch area is clean and dry. Power off the lamp by unplugging it, wait a minute, and then plug it back in to reset. Make sure your fingers are clean and dry when attempting to use the controls.

Lamp not holding a charge

Try using a different USB cable and a known working USB power adapter. If the problem persists, the internal battery may need servicing or replacement, which is not user-serviceable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Charging: Connect the included USB cable to the charging port on the lamp and plug the other end into a standard USB power source (e.g., a computer, wall adapter, or power bank). A full charge typically takes 3-4 hours. The charging indicator light will show when charging is in progress and when complete.

Compatibility: The lamp is compatible with any standard USB power source for charging. It operates independently once charged, making it compatible with virtually any environment.

Care: To clean the lamp, ensure it is turned off and unplugged. Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to wipe the surfaces. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. Keep the lamp away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.
