Precise directional lighting – thanks to an adjustable flexible gooseneck
A robust flexible gooseneck holds its shape while allowing the LED head to be angled exactly where required, giving fine positional control without moving the clamp. The metal-core neck resists sagging so the beam stays fixed once set.
Accurate beam placement removes distracting shadows on pages or keys, allowing comfortable reading or focused tasks without disturbing others.
Portable power options – with USB or 4xAA battery operation
USB power provides a steady current from any USB port, while four AA cells supply cordless operation when no socket is available; batteries are not included. Power mode selection does not require tools or adapters.
Switch between desk use and battery mode for travel or bedside use, so lighting is available whether at a desk, on a train or in a shared room.
Comfortable brightness control – with three dimmable LED settings
Three preset brightness modes correspond to 4, 16 and 28 LEDs, giving low, medium and high output while using energy-efficient LEDs designed to limit glare. Smooth switching cycles through levels without complex menus.
Choose an output that suits ambient light and task, prolonging battery life on lower settings while still offering a high-output option for detailed work.
