FAQs

What are the three color temperature options?

The lamp offers 6000K (Daylight), 4000K (Cool Light), and 2700K (Warm Light) options to suit different tasks and preferences.

How do I adjust the brightness?

Brightness is adjusted using the controls on the lamp's base or arm, typically by pressing a button or touching a specific area to cycle through the three available levels.

What is CRI?

CRI stands for Color Rendering Index. A CRI of 95+ means the lamp shows colors very accurately, similar to natural daylight, which is essential for detailed work.

Can the lamp be attached to any easel?

The included universal easel clamp is designed to fit a wide range of easel sizes, but always check the dimensions if you have an unusually thick or thin easel leg.

How is the arm positioned?

The flexible arm allows for 360° rotation of the shade and 320° swivel of the arm itself, providing extensive control over the light's direction.

Is the LED bulb replaceable?

The integrated LED is designed for long life. Please consult the product manual or contact customer support for information on replacement if needed.

What is the maximum thickness the clamps can accommodate?

The clamps are designed to be versatile, but specific maximum opening dimensions are best confirmed in the product's detailed specifications or manual.

Troubleshooting

Lamp does not turn on

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into both the lamp and a working electrical outlet. Try a different outlet to rule out power source issues.

Light flickers or is inconsistent

Check that the power connection is firm. If the issue persists, ensure the LED bulb (if replaceable) is properly seated. Contact support if the problem continues.

Clamp does not hold securely

Ensure the clamp is attached to a stable surface. Check for any debris on the clamp or surface that might prevent a firm grip. Adjust the clamp's tension if possible.

Light output seems dim

Verify that the lamp is set to the desired brightness level and not on the lowest setting. Ensure the shade and LED are clean, as dust can reduce light output.
