Table Lamp

Blue light refers to light with a wavelength between 400-500nm in the spectrum, too much blue light can cause damage to the eyes. Different types of table lamps have different blue light content. Generally speaking, incandescent lamps and halogen lamps have a lower proportion of blue light, and fluorescent lamps and LED lamps have a higher proportion of blue light. You can choose table lamps with high color rendering (Ra>90) or low color temperature (3000-4500K) to reduce blue light.

Strobe refers to the periodic change of the brightness of the light source over time, and high-frequency flicker can cause visual fatigue and dizziness. Incandescent lamps and halogen lamps emit light due to heat, and the stroboscopic effect is relatively light. Fluorescent lamps will produce obvious stroboscopic flicker due to the influence of the 50Hz frequency of the mains. Due to the influence of power drive, LED will also produce a certain degree of strobe. You can choose a high-quality power driver or use an eye protection luminosity pen to detect the strobe water of the table lamp.

Different brands and models of table lamps may have different adjustment methods, which are generally operated through the touchpad or mobile APP.

The table lamp should be placed on the left front to avoid blocking the light with the right hand. The brightness and color temperature of the table lamp should be adjusted according to the ambient light and personal habits, so that the illumination on the book or table can reach the national standard (300-500Lux). The table lamp should avoid direct sunlight or reflected glare, so that the contrast between light and shade in the field of vision is moderate.

A table lamp is a household appliance that produces certain electromagnetic radiation, but the intensity and harm of this radiation are very low and will not cause harm to the human body. The radiation value of the table lamp will decrease with the increase of the distance, so as long as you keep a reasonable distance of use (more than 15 cm), you don’t have to worry about the radiation problem. Compared with sunlight, mobile phones, microwave ovens, etc., the radiation of table lamps is negligible.

Pay attention to the core indicators of table lamps, such as illuminance, uniformity, color rendering index, color temperature, glare, strobe and blue light. These indicators will affect the light effect and eye protection of the table lamp.

1. The first step in maintaining the table lamp is to remove dust regularly. You can use a feather duster or a small vacuum cleaner to gently pat the dust off the table lamp.
2. The second step of maintaining the table lamp is to choose the appropriate cleaning tools and methods according to the material and shape of the table lamp.

• Cloth lampshade: You can first use a small vacuum cleaner to suck away the surface dust, then pour some detergent or furniture special detergent on the rag, and replace the rag while wiping. If the inside of the lampshade is made of paper, avoid using detergent directly to prevent damage.
• Frosted glass lampshade: Use a soft cloth suitable for cleaning glass, and carefully scrub; or use a soft cloth dipped in toothpaste to scrub, and use soft cloth to wrap chopsticks or toothpicks to deal with uneven places.
• Resin lampshade: It can be cleaned with a chemical fiber duster or a special duster. Anti-static spray should be sprayed after cleaning, because resin materials are prone to static electricity.
• Wrinkled lampshade: Use a cotton swab dipped in water to scrub patiently little by little. If it is particularly dirty, use a neutral detergent.
• Crystal beaded lampshade: The workmanship is delicate and exquisite, but cleaning is very troublesome. If the lampshade is made of crystal beads and metal, it can be cleaned directly with mild detergent. After cleaning, wipe off the water on the surface and let it dry naturally. If the crystal beads are threaded, it is best not to wet the thread, and can be scrubbed with a soft cloth dipped in neutral detergent. For the dirt on the metal lamp holder, first wipe off the surface dust, and then squeeze a little toothpaste on the cotton cloth to scrub.

3. The third step in maintaining the table lamp is to pay attention to safety and energy saving. When using and cleaning the table lamp, cut off the power supply and avoid using excessively high-power light sources.

• The table lamp does not light: it may be that there is a problem with the power cord, plug, switch or bulb. You can check whether there is an open circuit, looseness or burnt out. If so, you can replace the corresponding parts.
• Table lamp flickering: It may be that the voltage is unstable, poor contact, or the drive circuit is faulty. You can check whether there is power fluctuation, loose interface or aging circuit. If so, you can adjust the power supply, tighten the interface or replace the drive circuit.
• The brightness of the table lamp is not enough: it may be that the lamp beads are aging, the lampshade is blocked, or the ambient light is too strong. You can check whether the lamp beads are dimmed, the lampshade is dirty or exposed to direct sunlight. If so, you can replace the lamp beads, clean the lampshade or adjust the lamp location.
• Table lamp adjustment failure: It may be that the controller is damaged, the sensor is malfunctioning, or the software is wrong. You can check whether there are controller buttons that are not working, the sensor responds slowly, or the software is stuck. If so, you can replace the controller, repair the sensor or restart the software.
