Trond 11-Watt LED Clamp Desk Light

Trond 11-Watt LED Clamp Desk Light

I searched long and hard to find a bright, well-built LED light that would look good on my desk. I believe I’ve found it with this one.

I have two of these lights – one on my office desk, and another on my bed’s headboard. The light clamps securely onto a riser on my computer desk as well as the much thicker headboard, so there is quite a bit of range depending on what you want to attach it to.

The best feature is the ability to easily change the color temperature and brightness of the light. There are five temperatures available ranging from a very cool, office-like daylight for tasks that require excellent visibility to a very warm cozy yellow hue when you want to relax. I found the brightness levels to be appropriately stepped, although I usually use mine on the brightest or second to brightest setting.

I also really like the 30-minute auto-power off timer that you activate simply by holding the on/off button for two seconds. You can read a book before bed and not worry about having to rouse yourself to turn off the light as the sandman beckons.

There is also a USB port on the back of the base so that you can charge your phone or tablet.

This would make a great graduation gift for someone who is going off to college. With the range of brightness levels, this lamp would be ideal for reading at your desk without disturbing a roommate who is sleeping.
