Product Information

Full details

The GUBI Bagdad Portable Rechargeable Light in White is for design enthusiasts seeking a blend of iconic mid-century style and modern functionality. Its key benefit is providing ambient, cordless illumination with a touch-activated dimmer, all within a sculptural, perforated metal design. A potential caveat is its decorative nature, which may limit its use in applications requiring very bright, focused light. This portable lamp reimagines Mathieu Matégot's 1954 design at half scale, offering three brightness levels and cordless versatility for indoor and outdoor use, creating captivating light and shadow effects.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the lamp is fully charged. Check the charging cable and power source. Try a different charging cable or power adapter. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Dimmer function not working

Power the lamp off completely and then power it back on. Ensure your touch is deliberate on the sensor area. If the touch control remains unresponsive, contact customer support.

Light flickers or is dim

The battery may be low. Charge the lamp fully. If flickering continues after a full charge, there might be an internal issue; contact customer support.

Lamp does not hold a charge

Ensure you are using the correct charging cable and a compatible power source. If the lamp consistently fails to hold a charge after multiple attempts, contact customer support for potential battery replacement or warranty service.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

To set up your GUBI Bagdad Portable Rechargeable Light, ensure it is fully charged before first use. The charging port is typically located at the base of the lamp. Connect the provided charging cable to the lamp and a suitable power source. The light will indicate when charging is complete (refer to product manual for specific indicators). Once charged, simply tap the touch-sensitive area (usually near the base or stem) to turn it on and cycle through brightness levels.

Compatibility:

This is a standalone rechargeable light. It is compatible with standard USB charging power sources (e.g., wall adapters, power banks) via its charging port. Ensure you use the provided or a compatible charging cable.

Care:

  • Cleaning: For the metal shade, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to wipe away dust and smudges. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
  • Perforations: Use a soft brush (like a makeup brush or small paintbrush) to gently clean any dust that may accumulate within the perforations.
  • Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store in a dry location. Ensure the lamp is powered off and, if possible, has a moderate charge to preserve battery health.
  • Outdoor Use: While designed for outdoor environments, it is recommended to bring the lamp indoors during inclement weather or prolonged periods of non-use to maintain its condition.
