A long flat light bar is hinged to a straight column and the column is hinged to a thin, wide base, so the lamp opens into a shallow Z about 34 cm high and folds back down into a flat white slab that slides into a drawer or a carry-on. Set into the front of the column is a narrow black LCD panel that reads the time, the date and the room temperature, so one object on a desk or a bedside table does the work of two. There is no cord, no plug and no bulb to fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEverything about the light is set on the lamp itself. A touch pad moulded into the front edge of the base switches it on, steps through three colour settings from warm light to cool white, and holds to take the brightness up and down. Four small buttons behind the column, marked MODE and two arrows, set the clock and the date. The light bar is 27.5 cm long, so it lays a wide band of light across a work surface rather than dropping a single circle on it, and the battery charges from any USB port, laptop or power bank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA clock, a date and a thermometer built into the lamp:\u003c\/strong\u003e the narrow LCD panel on the column reads the time, the month and day, and the room temperature in degrees Celsius, so a bedside table or a desk needs nothing else standing on it\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFolds completely flat:\u003c\/strong\u003e the light bar folds back about 180 degrees onto the column and the column folds down about 90 degrees onto the base, leaving a flat slab 34 cm long that packs for a holiday house, a caravan or a student room\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree colour settings and touch dimming:\u003c\/strong\u003e warm light, warm white and white, all chosen on the lamp rather than when ordering, with the brightness set by holding the same touch pad\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompletely cordless:\u003c\/strong\u003e a built-in rechargeable lithium battery charged through the USB socket in the base, from a phone charger, a laptop port or a power bank, and the lamp also runs while it is plugged in\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA wide bar rather than a spot:\u003c\/strong\u003e the 27.5 cm light bar spreads the light across the surface below it instead of lighting one small circle, which is what makes it useful over a book, a keyboard or a sketchpad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSizes and options\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne size and one finish.

Charge the lamp through the micro-USB socket at the back of the base from any standard 5 V USB charger, laptop port or power bank. Stand it on a flat surface, lift the column upright and swing the light bar out to the angle wanted. A tap on the touch pad in the front edge of the base switches the light on and steps through the three colour settings; holding the same pad takes the brightness up and down. The clock and the date are set with the MODE and arrow buttons on the back of the column. Because the lamp runs at 5 V from a USB port there is no mains plug and no electrician is involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe the white plastic with a soft cloth, barely damp, and dry it straight away. Avoid solvents, polishes and abrasive cleaners, which mark moulded plastic and can craze the light guide panel. Do not rinse the lamp and do not let water into the base or the charging socket. Fold the arm and the column closed before the lamp goes into a drawer or a bag, and do not push the hinges past the point where they stop. Recharge the battery every few months even when the lamp is not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuick answers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the little screen on the column show?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree things, on one narrow LCD panel: the time, the date as month and day, and the room temperature in degrees Celsius. The manufacturer states that the panel does not light up at night, which is why it does not glow in a dark bedroom; it is read by room light, the way a wristwatch face is, and it can be switched off altogether. The clock and the date are set with the MODE and arrow buttons behind the column.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow big is it, and does it really fold flat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt stands about 34 cm high with the arm raised, on a base 17 x 12 cm, which is about the footprint of a sheet of A5 paper. The light bar is 27.5 cm long, so it is almost exactly as long as the long side of an A4 page. The arm folds back about 180 degrees onto the column and the column folds down about 90 degrees onto the base, leaving a flat slab roughly 34 cm long and about 3 cm thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does one charge last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states up to 4 hours at full brightness and up to 24 hours at the lowest setting. Those are its own figures and have not been independently verified, and like any battery light the real time depends on the brightness used. The lamp also runs while it is plugged into a USB port, so it can be used continuously at a desk and kept for cordless use elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it come with a plug or a charger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, and that is deliberate. A USB-A to micro-USB cable is packed with the lamp and it charges at 5 V from any phone charger, laptop port or power bank already in the house, so there is no mains plug to adapt for Australian power points. The manufacturer does not state a charging time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it bright enough to work or read by?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe LED draws 7 W along a 27.5 cm bar, and the manufacturer shows the light covering a circle about 35 cm across on the surface below, which suits a book, a sketchpad or a keyboard. No lumen figure is published, so the output cannot be compared with a rated reading lamp on paper. Three colour settings and the dimming make it adjustable for close work in the evening or a low warm glow at night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan it be used while it is charging?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The manufacturer states the lamp works plugged in as well as on its battery, so it can live permanently on a desk with a cable, or be unplugged and carried to another room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan it be used outdoors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly under cover and in dry weather. The manufacturer states no IP rating, so the lamp can be carried out to a sheltered veranda, balcony or terrace table for the evening and brought back inside, but it must never be left out in rain or damp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"LumePorch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68078864957760,"sku":"LP-TBL089","price":98.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/6252\/7808\/files\/folding-arm-led-clock-display-rechargeable-table-lamp-01.jpg?v=1794322437","url":"https:\/\/lumeporch.com\/products\/folding-arm-led-clock-display-rechargeable-table-lamp","provider":"LumePorch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
