5.0 out of 5 stars They really got the details right on this, buying a couple more, December 17, 2008

I had some concerns about a few things, just based on other LED products I've got. But this one has no LED issues and we're getting a few more for the office.

1: On max brightness this will light up an entire work surface. This new unit, with only 6 LEDs, is bright on max level. I'd say it's brighter a standard fluorescent desk light, and covers a larger area.

2: The Daylight White still looks like a high quality high Kelvin light source - it is not too "blue-ish" - I had been concerned about that based on cheaper led products.

3: On low brightness it does not have any flicker. As you may know, LEDs are usually dimmed by cycling them on and off, and as a result, many LED products have a high frequency flicker that I can usually see. I'm pretty sensitive to flicker, maybe due to my eye condition (albinism), and I can usually see the flicker in indirect tube TV light and cheap LED Christmas lights, but I cannot see it here at all on any brightness level.

Low brightness is also nice for generic background lighting. I tend to use just off, low and high, and ignore brightness levels 2 and 3.

4: The AC adapter is pleasantly tiny - you could mistake it for a cell phone charger - very efficient light source I guess. The light also returns to the same brightness level if you disconnect it from AC (at least for short periods, did not test overnight) This one thin wire is the only wire you'll see - all other electricity travels through the secure mechanical connections.

5: If you have a smaller workspace, like just a phone and notepad, you might want to check out the mini 4 LED version. This full sized one is for a larger work surface.

Very impressed.

My only suggestion, and this is tiny, is that the on and off press buttons could be a bit lower down on the neck. There's a slight wobble when you press the on button - any similar design would have that - and it would be minimized if they moved the buttons down an inch.

And I guess it could have buttons for each power level, but then that would be 5 buttons instead of 2, and that makes it more complicated, so never mind. Or just have 2 brightness levels, low and high, and off, requiring only 3 buttons. When you turn it on, you do need to cycle through the 3 lower brightness levels to get to max. And then to turn it off, you go back down through those 3 other levels. Not a big deal, this is a TINY and possibly bad suggestion.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is no ordinary desk lamp!, May 15, 2009

While it may seem expensive, you are paying for the technology, design and quality of this fixture. It uses new generation high power white l.e.d. bulbs as opposed to older l.e.d.'s which put out fewer lumens. I also recommend you go with the bright white as opposed to the warm white bulbs which produce a less intense yellow light. This lamp goes together in minutes, is infinately adjustable and comes with a solid as well as bracket base. You have 4 levels of brightness as opposed to an on/off switch. It produces very little heat as compared to halogen or incandescent bulbs. If Porsche made a desk lamp, this would be it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Lamp Flickers, January 25, 2010

Electrically, there is poor contact between the LED bar plug and its socket, this causes the lamp to flicker a few times per hour - annoying. The flicker would have caused me to return the lamp, but being in the UK, I modified the lamp to fix it. Lack of electromechanical design skills are evident, LEDs take 900mA, all connectors need to be up rated for lifetime use. Design appearance is good. Mechanically the operation is a bit plastic and not 100% smooth, but acceptable. Works on 240V.
