Stylish and versatile lamp

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had this lamp for two weeks and so far I’m loving it! I work from home and have been using this lightweight desk lamp around the house for extra lighting during my work day and as a reading lamp in the evening. It keeps me from straining my eyes too much. I also appreciate its stylish design it fits right in with my modern aesthetic. It’s also very lightweight so it’s super portable and easy to move from room to room. And the fact that it doesn’t need to be plugged in once it’s charged is a game changer! I personally hate dealing with cords so this is a huge benefit. I also appreciate being able to change the color of the light as well as the brightness. I have dimmers in every room at home so this is perfect for me. I mostly use the in-between setting not too cool and not too warm. I could see myself using the warm setting in the evening for mood lighting. I typically don’t like bright white light because it strains my eyes but I find that even the coolest white setting is comfortable. The versatility of the lamp is amazing! The only things I would change would be: 1. would love if this lamp was another 4-6 inches taller so that it could illuminate more of my workspace and 2. would be great if the charger cord was usb-c to usb-c so that I could easily plug it into my laptop without an extra attachment. These are very minor things though overall it’s a great product and I would highly recommend. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this desk lamp.

Tru Red Portable touch light
on October 15, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Tru Red light. It has been a game changer for every outside lighting transition. I can be working at my desk with the low light setting during the day then if i have paperwork (vs a computer) or in the evenings i can tap the light and have a high light setting. I've even brought it outside sitting on the porch and had perfect lighting for family supper. I would recommend this light to anyone that needs a solution for a rechargeable lamp that actually emits enough light to do whatever it's needed for. I received this product for my review on the Stellar panel.

[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!

Lightweight and Sleek Lamp

from Anderson
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This lamp was provided was received through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. The design of the lamp is sleek and simple and allows it to fit just about anywhere. It’s easy to clean and move around. The light settings are not harsh on the eyes and give options for the type of lighting that may work best for a person. You can charge the lamp with the usb cord provided in the box which allows the lamp to be used in places where an outlet or cord are not accessible. The button on the bottom is the only thing that I would change as it is a little inconvenient but but once it is pressed you can tap the touch sensitive area on top of the lamp to adjust the light settings or to continue to tap for no light.

Best work lamp

from Jacksonville
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this lamp from the Stellar product testing panel and I LOVE this lamp for my office!! I work in a school where there are huge fluorescent lights in the room. I share an office and we both prefer to keep those lights off and use lamps in our room. This lamp fits perfectly on my desk as it’s compact. The re-chargeable design makes it easy to move it anywhere without worrying about cords in your space or not reaching the outlet. I love how the light has not only 3 settings but also how you can brighten or dim those settings! I will say as the lamp is small I wouldn’t recommend it to brighten an entire room but it does great to give light on my desk with my paperwork! The battery lasts a full work day. I just plug it in overnight so when I come the next day I’m able to unplug and use it freely. I keep this lamp at work but it would even be great at night on a nightstand while reading a book.

The Mighty Moveable Lamp

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] TRU RED definitely hit their mark with their Portable LED Lamp. When I first unboxed the lamp I was impressed with the modern design that somewhat resembles a tiny barbell. The size of it was also favorable as the footprint is that of an average coffee mug. I also noticed that it uses a Type C USB charger which is super convenient when recharging is needed since they are readily available. The lamp is somewhat light in weight but does have enough weight that makes it not feel flimsy. The bottom has a rubber type grip so the lamp won’t slide on a smooth surface. The on/off button is at the bottom as well. Next I fired the lamp up to see how well it lights the surrounding area. It was quite bright! There are three settings (5K cool 4k Neutral and 3K warm) that can be used based on your preferences. I preferred the 5K setting because of how it brightens up the room as well as the surrounding area. My husband had an important test that he needed to prepare for so he used the lamp when studying and it was easy for him to rearrange his laptop books etc. in order to have an efficient workspace. My husband liked the 3K light because he said it was easier on his eyes and less blinding. The last mention that is necessary is the toddler test. We have a son who is close to one and a half who took an interest in the lamp right out of the box. He’s not the gentlest with handling items but the lamp stood up to a toddler without being damaged. He also loved the top of the lamp that needs to be tapped to change the brightness which he changed quite often. My son wanted the lamp next to him when he was coloring and reading a book. The charge also lasted for a relatively long time even with our routine use. I’m very impressed with this lamp and am happy to have it. I may get another one to put in our son’s room too! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with the TRU RED Portable Lamp.
