After a super short delivery time, I got a flat, elongated parcels, where one could hardly imagine that it is supposed to be a desk lamp. Only the weight could be guessed this. I opened the box and inside a box was already very high came over. (Even equipped with handle) The choice was all important to recognize, however, only in English. But that's not so bad, mainly the manual is in German! And that it is, in an ordinary German - great! In the box is still a cleaning cloth, the power plug with sufficient cable and the lamp available. This is flat when folded, packed in a foil bag and foam around, that nothing can be damaged during transport.
If you take out the lamp, it has a very nice weight, which is important for the stability of the foot. By 3 joints at the lamp arm can rotate in almost all directions as you need them. This makes it flexible like no other. Nor does it tilts right around, just in case of extreme bending forward it enters the tilt, but who bends it gone so far? Other positions ranging to!
The foot is covered and then the touch panels are with a glass surface. Thus, it looks very high-quality and luxurious. (And the dust can be seen not as fast as with a black lamp)
If the power plug is - that is not hot - lights on the control panel permanently the A-and off switch. The night can be disruptive, but then you always see where you have to turn on and off. Can imagine in the dark, that you then examined forever by the switch because nothing is since elevated on the touch panel, the then. By enlightenment you can immediately turn!
The icons on the touch panel are self-explanatory. It is a book displayed on white, bright light and a coffee mug for warm, yellow light. The brightness can then be individually beside still vary with the sun buttons. These have for dark little rays and light for many jets. If the minimal or the most maximum level is reached, the keys vibrate slightly and you can hear it even if it is quiet. That's a great thing.
In addition, the lamp has a sleep function. For this you just need to press the small circle where sleep is off. When it is lit the circle on blue. The lamp is only slightly with yellow, warm light.
The light panel is the size of about a postcard. One sees in this no individual LEDs, but the whole area is lit.
As an added bonus to this lamp is that one side has a USB port at the bottom. This way you can charge your mobile phone while man does his homework for example. ; O)
However, no additional cable is supplied. I have a Samsung phone. When I plug in there the original charger it works not correctly. While it invites, but the phone comes all about one minute, a tone that I've just been infected and lights up. If I take a charging cable of TaoTronics in return, it invites quite normal. This I've used my external battery's. But I can not explain this difference.
Conclusion: the lamp is a truly successful invention for the price! (But not for the alleged original price of more than 200, but for almost 70!) Really recommended. This provides long study nights and so nothing in the way!
