Good and Green

LED lights are becoming increasingly popular in today’s world. You can vary them from soft, ‘warm daylight’ (like the one in this 3,000K bulb) or cooler ‘bright white moonlight’. They can produce three or four times the brightness of tungsten lights while using the same amount of electricity. This is because their lumens-per-watt is way more efficient than every other bulb.

At 2.5W, dimmable gooseneck headboard/wall mount reading light (A1) will drastically cut your power bills. And this energy-conserving ability makes LED lights greener than any other type of light. They last longer too. Some LEDs can last ten years or more, so you replace them less often. This leads to less wastage of glass, plastic, and the other components used to make bulbs. Meaning LEDs are generally better for the environment.

The bulb in our dimmable gooseneck headboard/wall mount reading light (A1) is recessed. By sinking it slightly into its casing and fitting it with a warm light bulb, we’ve reduced the amount of heat your light emits. You can use it for hours at a time without overheating the bracket, the bulb, or changing the temperature of the room. This is a helpful tip for shared spaces since it reduces fights over the thermostat.

To the Left to the Left

We all love the versatility of a gooseneck faucet, but a gooseneck lamp can be even more magical. Our dimmable gooseneck headboard/wall mount reading light (A1) has a flexible neck that won’t weaken, snap, or break, no matter how much you wiggle it. The neck has enough ‘give’ that you can tug into any angle, position, or location that suits you. You can bounce the beam off a mirror or glossy wall for broader lighting.

Alternatively, if you’re studying in a dank library or a hidden windowless office, you can turn the light to a given section of your work. You can also pull the light further from the page. This is helpful if you’re studying old books that might be damaged by harsh illumination. LEDs are generally cooler than tungsten or halogen bulbs, so this will also lower potential page damage.

The gooseneck has an attractive textured outer casing. This casing is waterproof and heatproof so your lamp’s internal wiring is safe. The reading light uses 110 volts and the neck is about 16 inches long. It’s made from lightweight materials so it won’t overpower its escutcheon. Also, the slimness and recessed positioning reduces glare as the light leaves its source and hits the page.

Self-Contained Lighting

Reading lights sometimes have a broad beam to brighten the area of focus. The idea is to light up a large space using this small light. It’s especially useful for study nooks, attic bedrooms, and the tiny dorm-room cubbies that many students are forced to study in. But in shared situations, you want to avoid disrupting everyone else in the space. After all, college is enough stress already!

By keeping your roommates in good spirits, they’re more likely to let your date stay over *wink-wink-nudge-nudge*. But even if you’re using the light at home and want to avid bugging your sibling or spouse, dimmable gooseneck headboard/wall mount reading light (A1) has you covered. It has a narrow light beam with its own built-in lampshade. This means you can target your illumination during study sessions.

The slim 35° bulb diameter means no diffuse rays will fill the room, so there’s less waste of both energy and lighting rays. The shade is metallic so it’s a good conductor and will prevent the bulb from overheating during extended study sessions. The controlled beam can even act as a memory prompt, helping you cram a particular term, definition, or passage for your exam.

Location and Easy Installation

With many reading lights, the solid base is placed on the floor or table and your main challenge is proximity to your power plug. Our dimmable gooseneck headboard/wall mount reading light (A1) is designed for permanent installation on a flat, vertical surface. You can mount it on a wall or the headboard over your bed. It’s a lightweight lamp that weighs about a pound and comes in matte black or brushed nickel.

The light uses a hex screw to attach itself to the wall, so the outer appearance is smooth and discrete since the mounting mechanism is concealed inside the escutcheon. The lamp also has an 11-foot quick-connect mechanism so you can install your reading as far as 11 feet from your power outlet. The shipping box includes both a power adapter and an O-ring bracket.

The compact size and design of this light give it a minimalist look. It doesn’t occupy much space – the diameter of the escutcheon is about 2.4 inches. And because the gooseneck is flexible, you can bend it out of the way or tuck into a less disruptive position when the light isn’t in use. The bulb produces 140 to 160 lumens at its brightest, and you can easily turn it down as needed.

With all these features and pocket-friendly price, the dimmable gooseneck headboard/wall mount reading light (A1) is just what you need.
