Choosing a table lamp: practical tips

Even today, in the age of computer technology, many people spend their time not at the monitor, but at an ordinary table, over a book, notebook or sheet of paper. This is especially true of schoolchildren and students who need to do homework, write essays and term papers. And this can not always be done on a computer.

For full, comfortable and safe work at the table, a desk lamp is needed that will illuminate the work surface, and do it right, without tiring your eyes. The most important factor by which you should choose a lamp is its power. A lamp that is too dim will give insufficient light, forcing you to strain your eyes, but too bright will contribute to eye fatigue. Optimal, the power will be 40-60 watts.

In addition, it is worth paying attention to the shape of the lampshade. It is preferable that it be conical, that is, expandable. In this case, the light from the lamp will not be direct, but diffused, which means more comfortable.

Of great importance is the color of the rays. The most comfortable in this regard, of course, are the classic table lamps that emit warm white light.

It is important that the lamp is stable. If the product is planned to be simply placed on the table, then the leg should be flat, flat and heavy enough to outweigh the lampshade. If the table lamp has a clip that is mounted on the edge of the table, then its reliability must be checked: inspect the integrity of small parts, find out what material they are made of, check whether it is securely attached to the table. Recently, small clothespins on clothespins have become popular. The convenience of such products in ease of attachment and mobility: it is easy to transfer it from one edge of the table to the other, or even attach it to another piece of furniture.

Other things being equal, it is worth giving preference to adjustable lamps. This is especially true if at the same table the work of different people is planned: of different stature, physique, left-handed and right-handed.

In all these cases, the light must fall on the table in a strictly defined way and with a stationary product this is difficult to achieve. It is good if not only the position of the light source is regulated, but also its intensity.

However, mindful of all these parameters, do not forget about aesthetic pleasure. Of course, a table lamp should be pleasing to the eye, and also fit into the interior of the room. Fortunately, now the choice of lamps and lampshades is very large, they are made in a variety of styles and colors.
