Works well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Tru Red Portable Lamp as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. The light is convenient and small enough to carry around when needed. Theres 3 different lights and you can dim or brighten if needed. I'm a bit rogue and don't read directions so it took me a second to figure out that circling the top with your finger was how you dim it. Only complaint I have is the battery life is a bit shorter than I would like.

Portable LED light delivers
on October 15, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this portable LED desk lamp. I absolutely love it. Let me count the ways… 1. It is functional. The lamp offers three types of light settings to choose (cool neutral and warm) and multiple brightness levels (from very dim to bright). I use the cool light when extra brightness is needed at my computer desk. The lamp brightens up the documents on my desktop and reduces eyestrain. The lamp height is perfect and effectively illuminates my work surface. I also use the warm light at its dimmest setting during nighttime when I do not want to disturb my husband but need some light. It is a nice soft warm glow! This would be perfect for a baby’s nursery as well. 2. It is portable. I am able to easily transport it from one location in our home to another (and I do). My desk is located on the first floor and it’s so easy move it to the family room for neutral lighting or to the bedroom at nighttime. 3. It has a very low profile due to its sleek design. I would describe the color of the lamp to be a very soft white not too bright. My style is transitional and the design works in whatever room it is in. It simply blends and does not stand out. 4. The touch sensor is incredibly easy to use. The directions are clearly stated and easy to follow. Once a dimness level is selected it is set until it is changed again. This proves to be very convenient. 5. The unit is easy to charge but I did not have the need during the evaluation period to recharge. So the charge holds for many many hours! My overall experience has been extremely positive with this lamp. No negatives!

Portable and practical

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I feel the TRU RED Portable Lamp is very practical. It makes for a nice accent lamp in the corner or a desk lamp and can even take along camping. I like that is has a long battery life and it is very easy to charge. There is a light indicator to alert when it’s finished charging. Hidden on the bottom of the lamp is a on/off button. Once you apply light pressure to the very top of the lamp it turns on. It can be cycled through three different light colors which is described as cold neutral or warm light. I find the cold light works best on a desk for note taking. The lamp doesn’t take up much space and you can easily sit it where needed. We camp so this is perfect to take along. It also makes for a nice accent lamp. The design is what I considered modern and sleek. It would fit in with any decor as well. I received this item through Stellar Product Testing Panel complimentary for testing purposes.

Sleek Modern Wireless Lamp

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this desk lamp from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Style: Upon receiving the lamp I was very impressed by its modern styling. Besides the small USB-C charging port there are no extra buttons or wires which made this lamp look very sleek and minimalist. Portability: The lamp is also very light and portable. It was very easy to move it between my home work desk and my couch-side table and the absence of wires meant that it could sit anywhere instead of needing to be located near a power outlet. Lighting: In addition to being portable and having a versatile minimalist style the ability to change the light “temperature” color and brightness made it very easy to move it from room to room and have it fit with the overall style and lighting in each location. I tend to use the cooler light setting at my work desk and the warmer setting when using it as a reading lamp as I wind down for bed. The overall brightness of the lamp was sufficient to light up my work desk or for using as a reading lamp next to a couch. However because of the design of the lamp the light is focused downwards so if you’re looking for a lamp to provide any ambient lighting for a room or area this probably is not the lamp for you. Overall: I really enjoyed the functionality of this lamp. The light has been a perfect desk lamp and its portability and clean styling make it easy to move around to wherever its needed.

Game Changing Lamp

from Jordan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From the moment I unboxed and gave this lamp its first charge I have been in complete love. I received this lamp as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel but please understand these are my true and honest opinions. I like to scan documents and digitize family memories as a hobby and there are often so many times where I just need a little extra light in my area. The touch to dim and ability to choose which color light best suits your needs is seriously a convenience I didn't know I needed in my life but I absolutely love it. The ability to recharge with USB and take it cord-free is absolute game changer and is almost like a 21st century torch. I have been using this lamp nearly daily now and I plan to continue using this lamp going forward in my life. I highly recommend and actually plan on getting one for other members of my family!

The future of lamp swgogn

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upon opening the box I knew the TRU RED Portable Lamp was special. The design is modern yet functional. I love how easy it is to transport. I am currently using the lamp in my classroom. It is just the right size. Another incredible feature is the three different brightness settings. These can be adjusted to fit the mood of my classroom on a daily basis! For me I love turning out the overhead lights and using the TRU RED Portable Lamp while writing lesson plans grading papers or taking a brain break from teaching! What a unique and functional lamp! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this desk lamp.

Nice rechargeable desk lamp great for daily use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this desk lamp. I have been use it everyday since received it and I really enjoy having this lamp on my computer desk. The design of the lamp is very clean and modern. It matches the style of my working area simple but functional sleek but low profile. I life the design that only one physical button at the bottom of the lamp and it can be fully controlled by the touch panel at the top. The lamp is almost fully made with metal very well built. It has a good weight to it so it stands very firmly on my desk and won't be knocked over by accident. This is really a plus for me I do have some other rechargeable lamps that do not have a secure base that can cause some troubles. Although the lamp neck is not bendable or adjustable due to the medal built I used it as a note holder with couple mini magnets. This added extra fun and function to it. The lamp has 3 options for the light color and also let you dim the light. You can definitely find the best setting for your eyes. All adjustment can be controlled by the touch panel but I wish it can be turned off by DOUBLE TAP and maybe remember my setting when turns on instead of have to go thru all 3 light colors to turn off. The battery holds the power pretty well. I usually only needs to charge once a week and can use it continuously during my work hours. I also keep it charged before the hurricane it will be really handy if power goes out. One of my favorite parts is the Type-c charging port it allows me to find a charger easily anywhere. I did try to figure out how big the battery is but I couldn't find it anywhere. I think it would be an issue if you try to take the lamp onto a flight as carry on. All in all I like the lamp very much. I am very happy to be able to get my hands on it and will continue using it daily. If you also need a rechargeable desk lamp a portable camping lamp a wireless bedside lamp...I definitely will recommend this TRU RED lamp to you!

Perfect portable lighting

from Chicago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the modern design of the lamp which helps it fit in most spaces. The fact that it’s portable makes it the most desirable. I used it to read in the living room in our reading nook in our office space at a desk and overnight while feeding our twins! The low light setting is very convenient to not annoy my husband while I was reading. As I mentioned we also took this to the room we feed our babies in so we could mix their formula overnight. It’s so lightweight and sleek you can use it a everywhere! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this desk lamp.
